If you pull out the resonators, it will give you the bark, pop, snap you are looking for. It will also give you all the other factors that come with that sound that is not so enjoyable. DRONE and hi RPM scream that will alert your neighbors' dogs that you are leaving and when you come home. It will also allow every cop (constable? Bobbie?) to hear where you are and they will write up up on a weekly basis. See the Youtube vids type in X5 exhaust sounds.
If you make the mod, plan before hand to be able to reinstall it to keep yourself a "driver" not a walker....
Personally I don't get the idea that more noise is good, but then I am not in my 20's anymore either.......
