#1
Hey people, what's going on..... Just picked up a 2004 545i sport, 6 speed. I wanted to put an exhaust on and was wondering what you guys recommend. On my e39 540, i got a magnaflow muffler and had an exhaust shop build me a pipe catback and took out the resonator. Do you recommend i do the same?? If so, what muffler could i use, the 14815?? Also, do you recommend the sprint booster for my car. If so, where can you get them. I'll prob add a k&N drop in too. I had the zeckhausen CDV on my 540 and will prob do that on the 545 when i get around to it. Any other suggestions for me?? I already have the m tech front bumper and style 172 wheels coming!!
Thanks
Thanks

I don't have any feedback on your mods, but congrats on the car and welcome to the forum.
I purchased the same car as you back in November. I love it.
What color is your car?

Get the sprint booster on Ebay. That's where many people have purchased it.
Congrats on the car and welcome!

Thanks to everybody welcoming me!!! Hmm, the color of the car is Silver gray(nicer than i had anticipated). I'm actually getting an M5 replica bumper....couldn't justify the big $$ for the Mtech kit considering I prob won't have the car too long.
Providence, why are you selling?? Is the muffler clean and in good condition. I'm in Albany, NY....where are you?

I have 14815 and love it. No problems whatsoever and you can't beat the price.
