  • The process I took in getting a muffler delete on my E60 550i. The shop Randy's Auto Xhaust Xpert in Gastonia NC really took care of me, and they explain the whole exhaust system to me; Which I am Sharing with you guys.

    Hey Mr. Carchives. I wanna say your beemer is the perfect sound I am looking for for my 2004 BMW 530i. I wanna ask what exhaust tips you used. Thanks. :)

  • @AdmiralRustyShackleford
    @AdmiralRustyShackleford 4 года назад +7

    If you eventually want it louder, I'd start with the 3rd resonator. Have a stainless steel y-pipe installed in its place, Magnaflow makes good quality stamped y-pipes. That'll get rid of that ugly box and make it look better.
    Your other options: delete that resonator box and run dual pipes back to the bumper. You might need to install an x-pipe where the box was to equalize the exhaust for better flow and sound but it'll sound really good. Last option, which is the most work and expense, but it'll look and sound the best: get an M5 bumper and add M5 dual exhaust. You'd cut off the 3rd resonator, add an x-pipe then run duals out to each side with dual tips, making the same quad exhaust the M5 has. It'll look and sound like the E39 M5.

    Damn I'm sold. I'm just going to cut off the mufflers on a straight pipe section and buy a band clamp to re-install them when I want to.
    Did they cap the vacuum line to the muffler valve or leave it open? I'll be capping it where it runs into the engine bay when I find it.
    EDIT: I think the valve vacuum line runs to a solenoid in the trunk.

    I’m in SC, just over the Catawba. let me tell you my experience with my 545i. MOST of the stock exhaust IS reusable: my exhaust guy (Tyler @ APS Muffler) pulled the stock tips and the stock vacuum flap (which sounds so f’ing sick btw at 2500rpm) and swapped them over to the now muffler-deleted exhaust for $50. Went back for a resonator delete for $50. the car is pretty damn good right now but i think i wanna go back and get the stock flap and tips deleted for bigger ones, install the K&N drop in air filter, then get the Dinan Stg 1 tune

      slow super not really. In short, if the windows are up you can hear a slight deep rumble but to really hear it, you’ll have to roll down the window unless you’re pushing it. The car has a deeper rumble at idle and during acceleration but it’s not annoying loud inside the cabin. ..While cruising I can’t here the exhaust really unless I roll down the windows.

      I was afraid of the something at first. Honestly the only time its loud is at a cold start, or when you're flooring it. While cruising its a low hum and nice little rumble at idle if you have a V8.

    Wow. The «professional» expecting 50 hp from an exhaust and NA tune. That’s dillusional.. And those valves are pressure controlled, not by sports modes or anything. Actually I think the stay closed during cold start, and below 3000 rpm driving or so, and open upon exhaust pressure when you hit it. This mod is all weight saving and that niiice sound. But still worth it though!
