At the moment RPi ONLY makes a single sided exhaust...There is talk of making a dual exhaust in the future...If I were you, I would just wait...Its not worth hacking up two good mufflers to do this...Also there is no guarantee that your car will make power once you try this...You may end up wasting alot of $$$$ with no results...
Like I said in the post above I am willing to do a test for RPi (before and after dyno run's) If they can send me two mufflers without tips, I am currently running a custom magnaflow set-up with an X-pipe and I am having no backpressure/loss issues, but I am willing to try this if RPi will give me a good deal on two mufflers. Thats all...

Thats cool...I'm not trying to tell you what to do...I was just saying that would be alot of fab work and cash to do it...That was just IMHO....Alot of the power comes from the change in the diameter of the piping...On my car they ran a smaller diameter to increase the power...So I'm not sure what results you would see...G/l with your venture though...

Thanks man, I am willing to spend the $$$ on my E60, I just want to make sure if I do go through with the custom RPi dual exhaust set-up and post true hp gains with this custom exhaust setup, not only would it be great for me, but also beneficial for many e60 members wanting to get a dual exhaust setup w/quad tips for their cars aswell
