big thanks to guys at pro fusion custom I know a few guys have had tyhere exhaust systems done by them and they have done all the exhausts on my previous BMW.

I'll get pics of the system under the car but basically its 3.5inch all the way (with a box) and then splits out to the quads, the noise is much the same as before, (however under load it sounds amazing).  I can remove the DPF and get it coded out but I dont think i'll do that.

I had to buy the trims that you require if you want to fit the BMW square tips,hence the delay.

Anyway here are the pics:-

staggered pipes

now the reason the pipes point up wards is so that they follow the line of the rear bumper...having them stright just looked crap!

rear end

another view

The system is all polished from underneath so i'll get it in the air for better pics.

The car seems to pull more but that may just be me lol!

Hey, double wheel barrows are allowed. That is what I have on my M so that is perfectly acceptable  :P

What is the sound like of those exhausts?

on idle and start up no differance what so ever, however under hard load you can hear the whistle of the turbo's it sounds like a bit of a jet engine when it goes past, bit addictive, nothing like the v8 sound on my x5 but then agian i wasnt expecting that.  If i want a much deeper sound then its off with the DPF, but at this stage its not something I wish to do.  I'm looking at the remap now, but first id like my ICE sorted, and at least put some miles on her!.  Or i could just give it to Don who doesnt seem shy of raking up miles lol!

double wheel barrows rule lol!

Oowwww!  I'm up for that!  I'll drop off my car early next week then.  You can give me a call once fully modded up and I'll return your car with a suitable increase in mileage.  :xmasgrin:
