Hey Rasta, can you email me or tell me where you got that wallpaper for your navi screen. I've been using a few WSU ones randomly, but they're getting old.

LIONEL1234554321 is an unknown quantity at this point
I think that the stock exhaust on the 4.4 sounds great (a good v8 growl)
there is no need to change it

For the first, and probably the last time ever...I agree w/ Lionel. I've got a perfectly good Magnaflow X-pipe sitting in my garage that I just can't justify installing...anyone interested?

I'm very intersted but so far from you...What could you tell me about the x pipe with all the other stock parts? Does it sound too loud? I think it could be the right compromise, isn't it?
Don't you have a clip about it?
Thanks

I haven't installed an X-pipe in my X5, and I have yet to hear one in person. There are more than enough videos on YouTube, but sometimes hearing it in person is best.

I've got Magnaflow 14816 mufflers on my 740iL and they sound amazing, but the muffler body is too long to fit in the X5's muffler area. BMWX54.4 did some nice sounding eBay mufflers, but my only concern was their fitment (not filling the opening perfectly) and if they'd eventually keep getting louder overtime as the packing material inside disintegrated.
