Actually, Anthony517's setup is the one you want,

http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=49606&hl=

Take a look at his thread.

And the tips, I got from Evsmotors.com. Call up ted and ask for the M6 oval tips. He'll let you know what's up. Or you can go 2 AAA motor in cali. I know a lot of guys here went to them for exhaust work.
anthony517's set-up looks like a straight pipe and pretty loud too! it sound's nice!

All I have is the MAGNAFLOW MUFFLER WITH BUILT IN X PIPE which then runs two pipes out to the QUAD tips and I am satisfied with the sound. If you want a louder noise than take out the FRONT resonator as well. Hope this helps.

Magnaflow with built in X-pipe? You got a part number for that?

Thanks for your help!

I see you are using one of my pictures.
I suggest to install all mufflers you can, if you want the car confortable: I have 5 of them:

and it is quite confortable, but if the car had more space I would get an other muffler more.

Silence is never enough - imho

Lmao yeah sorry, I saved the picture on my desktop and I forgot where it came from... but credits to you big guy!

Do you have any sound clips? 5 mufflers seems a little excessive no? so you're using mufflers in place of the resonators?

2.5 OD might be too big for your setup. Try 2 to 2.25 only. The more mufler you use, the less loud and less droning you will get.
yes, i am using 2 mufflers. but as stated above, the less mufflers you use - the louder it'll be with more droning.

i've helped a handful of ppl with their quad exhaust needs, hit me up and i'll see what i can do for you.

im confused again... is the resonator also called the "Center muffler"? Can someone pin-point on this diagram where the resonators are located? 1 and 2 are the catalytic converters....

Sorry im a complete newb when it comes to modding and mechanics. Thanks!

numbers 1, 2, and 3 are your resonators. on my personal e60, Ive taken out the rectangular resonator (#3) and have an x-pipe.
