So is the magnaflow xpipe all i need to purchase to get this mod. I also want to do the resonator delete. I tried going to the magnaflow site to purchase the xpipe but it said out of stock, do you guys know of anywhere else where i cant purchase it? Any problems with the xpipe after the install ?

You can find xpipe's all over ebay and a lot of other internet stores.

Here's one, but really they are available all over the place in all different sizes: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Magna...mZ190178984743

Have fun

well im confinced, instead of paying $1200 or around that for a whole new exhaust system on a 3.0, im going for it concidering it should only run me 200-300 (affordable on my behalf/reasonable) to do and im gonna throw in some better tips as well, thank for convincing me i missed my cat back duel exhaust on my tahoe 2''tips, not too loud but just sounded REAL mean, going for something a little less than that and it sounds like this is right up my alley thanks guys

Damn... ok just got my x5 4.8is... doing the X-PIPE... Quick question... Any other mods like this you can think of for the x5 to increase performance or look.

Thanks

Not sure if anyone has bought it, but the X-Pipe setup from Hartge looks particularly nice. Here is the photo of one for the 4.8is. They are also running a discount right now of half price for remaining stock.

Thats b/c 90% of M3 owners are POSERS! They just want to look cool with their M3, not b/c they can drive well or take the time to learn how to even drive/control their cars. They don't know what a race engine sounds like even if they had it in their cars! LOL

A Raspy tone like the E46 M3s is actually what a real RACE car engine sounds like. The M3 CSL and M3 GTR sound similar, but waaaay louder.

My MCoupe sounds raspy like that too when I go WOT. Its the best sound ever. Scares M3 and Honda owners alike.

How much is that setup? Looks good, but if its more than $150, then that magnaflow x-pipe is the deal! No one is ever going to see how nice that Hartge setup is under your car.

BTW, how does the X-pipe sound on the 4.8is. I know it already sounds good, but are there any clips? If the gain is marginal, I might not bother, but if its really good, then why not. Right now, it only sounds good at WOT and sitting around revving. But when we drive it normally, its very mellow. I wouldn't mind for some more bark around town without going WOT.

Around 250 euros or so.
