I believe the standard M5 are 3 inches.. you can get Oval's like mine. or get just regular 3.5 inch tips from any random website.

I would say at least 3.5". BTW, oval tips look awessome on a M5 Rear. Mike, nice setup!

when you perform a quad exhaust on a non M5 car do you have to do any other work to fit the other muffler underneath the other side? i thought that the M5s didnt come with a spare tire because they had a different trunk floor to accomodate the size and space for the additional muffler.

Nextel, you are correcy about the M5. I had my muffler inverted almost vertical on the right side to fit between the spare and the battery box. Some folks dont put a muffler there, instead have a dummy pipe with tips branching off of the left side, much like a Remus Quad Setup.

I'm not sure of the size, but they fill up the whole bumper with little room left. Call up this guy at Evsmotors.com, his name is Ted. Ask for M5 / M6 tips.

Or you can call Eisenmann up for the price of the tips.. =D

You can do that, or get a smaller muffler and put it in. That is what I did. =)
