The tips aren't the problem, it's the straight pipes he installed in place of the resonator. From hearing his own videos, he'd be better of putting the stock resonator back in and staying w/ his ebay mufflers.

He claims NYC, but he has Pennsylvania plates.

Yup. That was me. I was driving to 21st in Queens to get a car wash. Where you driving a 335i or a Toyota Coupe ? ?

Yeah i asked my brother and he said he was there after the SuperBowl. I washed the car the same day. How did it sound ? Like or un-Liked?

Didn't hear it too well - I'm guessing he was going maybe 2,000 RPM at maybe 25mph? It certainly was noticeable even at such low revs and low speeds. I can only imagine how loud it is at WOT.
