So i went to meineke yesterday after work to check out if they could do a muffler delete on my 545i and run 2 pips on each side with quad tips. the guy hear the numbers 545 and his first response was im not touching that.. lol i kinda chuckled inside but was sad at the same time, he couldn't even give me a quote.

he went on explaining about back pressure sensors and o2 sensors but all those are located by the cats, im guessing he just didnt want to work on my car.

for people who have done this is it just as simple as cutting the mufflers and running pipes or is there more than that and im missing something? also where would be a good place to get this done?


i tried searching but couldnt find the answer i was looking for, sorry if i have poor searching skills lol

any help is appreciated

Doing a muffler delete won't cause any problems. And yes it's as simple as chopping off the rear muffler(s) and replacing it with some pipe.

I had a friend of mine do a 2.5" dual exhaust with quad tips on mine and it runs fine and sounds awesome.

thanks for the quick reply

that's what i thought too, im guessing the guy just didnt want to work on this car. ill go to a different one this weekend and hopefully they will be a little more educated this time lol

I would not take my car to menieke. Go to a custom muffler shop or a performance shop.....
