I personally am going with putting an xpipe behind the first set of resonators then dual pipes out to Magnaflow mufflers which is R1racers set up and who I also purchased the set up from.

Wanted to introduce myself. Just had a new kid so convinced my wife that her 3 series was too small and that she needed a 5 series. Of course we needed to get a 550 
Anyways, it's white/tan and pics to come soon. I'm hobbling around on a broken ankle and she taking care of a 5 wk premie baby 
Anyways, I wanted to order an M5 but my dealer out in West TX could not get an allocation so we settled for the next best thing. I ordered the car exactly how we/I wanted it and even inquired about doing all I could to get it as close to an M5 as possible. Their only answer was to order the M5 aerodynamic pkg which I did. However, I'd still like to do more - I was told I couldn't get dual exaust, faux intake grills in the front side fenders and something else - can't remember. But if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I'm all ears.
I look forward to be an active participant on the board
Thanks
