Default FS.RPi exhaust for 545i

I bought this exhaust 10 days ago and just installed it yesterday and put maybe 20 miles on it. I paid $880. I have no problem with it but my wife and kids got upset. Decided to switch back to stack. I can't ship. This is a great opportunity for someone local to pick it up for $750.
P.S installing was realty easy took my 30 minutes.
I have no pic. It is still on the car.

I would say my wife got upset and kids started also complaining. I just ordered the silencer and will see if it decreases the drone. But if someone pick it up I'll sell it.

Buddy, Like I said in your other thread, the exhaust (like anything else) needs a break in period. About 250-500 miles, the sound should get smoother and a little quieter. The silencers will help as well, but have a little patience.

Like I sad I installed this new exhaust 5 day ago and the storm sandy was 5 weeks ago.
The sound seam to be improving and I like it. Probably I'll keep it
For now if I do not change my mind again
Sorry for confusion and Pjinca for help and information.

Don't be too hasty, wait for the silencer, it makes a big difference. I run one and my RPI is just pure awesome sound and even a little bump in HP too!
