It is deep, louder and of performance character. The luxury car feel is gone. Instead, it feels like a performance truck with a harmonious crackling tone.

I need more time to get used to it. The quiet ride of D mode is gone.

There is no drone.

The mod is not reversible, the old muffler cannot be used without adapting a sleeve to it and that will be a lot of work. The muffler guy spent a long time explaining everything about this. Paid 2 hour labor to do a proper installation, lining up, measuring, welding. Welding is imperative to avoid a leak.

Cosmetically, it is fantastic. Aurally, it is just as I hoped. Although, I still need to get used to it not sounding like a BMW inside. It sounds like a modded car.

GoPro will go on later this weekend.
Good writing! does your car have an ECU tune?
