I like the symmetry it adds to the rear of your 5'er.

As for the sound, my pc speakers don't do it justice. How much louder than stock is the set-up during highway cruising.

Wow a very nice sound for a 530i and it looks just perfect! What about the costs you spend for it?

Yes there is a drone between 1500 and 2100 but honestly I love a little drone. Makes the car more mean

On highway crusing it is the same as when I had just a single muffler, but when I punch it I can def tell that its louder arround 5k rpms.

The cost for the install was $220 the guy orginially wanted $300 but I used my negotiating skills

Thanks everyone for the comments. I hope this helped some members out on what a 530 with no resanotor would sound like. Thanks again Anthony

can you record how it sounds in the cabin? I'm going to probably do the same, just worried about the resonance
