Yes, it sounds raspy because its cold and not under load. When its warmed up and under load it is MUCH smoother and sounds awesome.

Here's a video I just took this morning. Unfortunately, same conditions - cold and not under load. Yes, it will sound raspy. I will try and take a video when its warmed up so that people can really hear the difference.

BTW .. do NOT have your speaker up too loud after you hear the startup (love the growl!). The wife guns its good unexpectedly and its like a banshee.

2004 BMW X5 4.8is stock with x-pipe - YouTube

When it comes to a loss of power from the x-pipe, I could not say either way. I haven't noticed a loss of power but I do not tow or even drive it daily. I have no regrets doing the x-pipe.
