X5 3.0d exhaust

Just had this stainless exhaust system fitted by Blue Flame Exhausts from Skelmersdale, England. Improved the looks of the car immensly and the sound is music to my ears, lovely deep burble with no intrusion within the car. £395 + fitting.

Yes, can't say how many bhp, but a noticeable gain right through the rev range, also the whistle from the turbo is more prominent. Really pleased with it.

Not that i've noticed, but only done a couple of hundred miles since fitted. Vehicle needs a wash.
