The clips on youtube don't do this thing justice. I have a 2008 550i and it brings the V8 to life! I will say there is a noticeable increase inside the cabin at lower speeds. Crusing at hwy speed u cant hear it. But man when you crank it up and rev it, its amazing.

I can only imagine how it sounds with a V8! Anyone know how it sounds on an I6? More specifically a 530i? I'd prefer to hear it in person vs. youtube.

I have it on my 530i. Unfortunately don't have a clip. Think there's a clip on youtube I found before - much better to hear it live. Sounds pretty deep even on the I6. My buddy (545i with RPI) was surprised. I love it thus far except that there's some cabin drone under 3,000 rpm - there's a thread for the silencer, made by RPI, that you can install to minimize the drone.
