Not really tempted!I already have the Oem 4.8is rear silencers installed and I am very pleased with them...Only a slight reduction in back pressure and larger diameter pipe.

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.

Any performance gain ? I saw these on e bay ? looks really nice

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. :thumbup:

Congrats on your new exhaust.Are those tips black chrome?

Chrome, needing a polish.

Do you have more soot(black smoke) now with this exhaust?

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