Ah, ok, so it's:

That resonator seems like it would function as quite a bottleneck; I'm surprised none of the exhaust setups delete that -- I'm guessing that's why you installed the X-pipe?

Why do you say that? Just because it's a single can doesn't make it a bottleneck. Inside the can still runs your twin pipes through it. You're feeding 2 pipes into it, you're getting 2 pipes out of it...all the same size...so where's the bottleneck?

powers1,

I also drive an 02 X5 3.0d euro and just modified my exhaust to have dual tips at the rear. NO drop in back pressure. I am curious in the way you set up your exhaust. Any pics ? You can check my pics at search topic for 3.0d diesel ehaust
