X5rolls is on a distinguished road
I found the x pipe on my 4.8is to give a bit more sound/db at idle and partial throttle, not a huge amount. But side by side to stock you absolutely can tell the difference at idle and partial throttle.

It's an inexpensive mod - for more bark than just the x-pipe I'd get new mufflers.

Right now, it only sounds good at WOT and sitting around revving. But when we drive it normally, its very mellow. I wouldn't mind for some more bark around town without going WOT.
