I think i might have mixed something up.
The resonator delete is removing the mufflers or is it the thing where an X pipe would go? Its a 4.4 I feel like an idiot  Maybe thats why they wanted so much.

Your resonator is before the mufflers (via the direction of the exhaust). It looks like a long narrow muffler.
Here is a link to a diagram of the exhaust system on Real OEM: (4.6 pictures has the idential layout with different tips and different mufflers) http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?...80&hg=18&fg=20 Many members have replaced the resonator with an X-pipe to increase the exhaust tone. I would think the difference in back pressure would be minimal. Someone posted a link to the Magnaflow X-pipe the other day. You can search the site or the web to find it. I think it cost around $80. $725 is rediculous to install an X-pipe. Find a different shop. Then get a third quote. I would guess around $100 to $200 plus the $80 or so for an X-pipe. (Anyone else agree / disagree??) Some guys have had shops make them an X-pipe from scratch. Porbably easier to buy the Magnaflow. Search the forum for information about a rattling sound on a cold engine when the resonator is removed. I have not researched it that much and others can hop in and give you some info on that. Good Luck!
