    Opinions on next mod please

    Came across this a while ago muffler delete with twin tip apparently 0 drone on motorway and quiet till you give heavy throttle

    The exhaust on my car is a stainless backbox so zero rust and a nice size single bore but as i have a nice twin tip stainless tip here iv been contemplating it but still really undecided if its a case i hate it i could alway put the original backbox on

    This is the exact tip i have


    And this is what im looking to do bit of wieght saving and some extra noise


    Now heres the video its an auto and the camera is directly above the exhaust so extra noisy (take this into account) thoughts please ?

    Video of 525i BMW 525i sport, muffler delete sound: http://youtu.be/oA76UC-FxFo

    In cabin video BMW E39 530i Muffler Delete Sound: http://youtu.be/37NEZzz2d4g

    Be as blunt as you like

    Looks a little bit like a small shotgun exhaust which aren't that loud unless accelerating , but when accelerating sound epic, or else go full r*tard and get a straight pipe

    I'm undecided, I like the standard E39 sport backboxes as is.

    If it is fully reversible then it might be worth trying out. But to be honest, I'm with DonB in that I'm a fan of the OEM tail pipe on the 525i. A bit of Autosol on the tail pipe & it looks well, sounds OK under load.

    i like the way it looks and the way it sounds.
    i didnt think the 525i could sound so good.
    something else to add to my list.
