Hey Phil looks awsome I didnt like the loudness either so i went with 4 resonators and that made it a whole lot better. Hope this helps phil, let just say it almost sound like you dont even have duals. 2 resonator before cat and 2 before the exhaust tips.

Just took a really crappy video off my macbook.

Sounds aggressive. I'd drive around with it for a week before making a final decision on whether to soften the tone.

Then again, I love the sound of D/K's quad set up with Cherry Bomb mufflers so maybe I am not the leased biased source.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'll probably drive around a week or two before deciding. I drive about 500 miles a week so I should "break it in" in no time.

nice congrats! do you have 2 license plates? "e60" and "got rax"?
GOT RAX was my original. I realized last week that I had never put on my E60 inspection sticker, it still says got rax. So I put that plate back on. I'm going to be changing it again, because everyone I run across thinks my plate say EGO, not to mention all the people who cut me off on the road with it.

Sounds like a good plan Phil.

Well I woke up at 6am and drove to houston to get my exhaust done. I went to 7 shops in San Antonio, and they all "couldn't do it" apparently. I went to the shop Phi went to and got the same setup. He did a good job, I did notice the left side is a little bit lower, maybe I can fix that. I'm exhausted from driving, but I snapped some pics. Not sure if I'm gonna keep the tips, they look pretty big. I'd like opinions on them if you think they are too big and if I should change them. The tips are tacked on so they would have to be taken off if I replace. Sound is good, kinda loud from what I'm used to, which is pretty much silent exhaust, at least its deep tone.

GREAT SETUP ++++++100000

Are they magnaflow?
