4.4i Mod#1 - Exhaust - Thoughts?
As of now, my X5 4.4i is still stock after a year of ownership. My future mod list for my X5 4.4i is primarily limited to performance mods. If I get around to any body mods, it will be last on the list.
The first thing I want to do is exhaust. Researching the crossover X-pipe led me to think about fabricating a complete exhaust system meaning replacing everything from the resonators back to the tail pipes.
Has anyone fitted Magnaflow or Flowmaster mufflers to an X5? My muffler guy says a pair of Flowmasters or Magnaflows will run me about $700-$800 in parts and labor; a couple of hundred bucks cheaper than Dinan, Remus, Boat, or Supersprint.
Anybody have any thoughts? I'm in California, so I need to consider about emission requirements. So long as I retain the stock cats and replace everything behind it, am I good to go?
Regards, Mike
