BMW performance exhaust installed on 35i
Well decided what the hell, and nabbed a n55 BMW performance exhaust, and took about an hour to hook it up, just getting the trim pieces painted this week to frame the tail pipes.
Love the sound, no drone and you don't really notice anything much from the inside but when trailing the car the sound improvement is their and sounds nice and deep, sounds really aggressive in the morning during a cold start! And drive buys sound much more throaty. Overall very happy with it. Just a nice OEM tuned note. Also has the 50i look to the rear now with the black chrome tips. |

Off topic, but I love your wheels. What are they?
Also, What's the part number of the exhaust?

So who knows. I'll try and make something at some point. Their far and few between I thought the m sport x5 would have come with it stock like how the 135is comes with the performance exhaust from the factory but who knows maybe it does. I know at the local club here a few didn't even know bmw made a factory performance exhaust for the x5. Hey you could buy the Megan and maybe just install the tips which you can buy separately. |

Looks like we both had the same idea to pick up an X5. I got mine back in January and its just a beast in the snow, and a huge improvement in terms of comfort and cargo capacity over my previous sedan. It came with sorta plain rims and I've been looking for a set that I can buy when it gets around to new tire time. Yours look really nice on the X5 so I think I may have found what I'm looking for. I hope your Z4M is still rocking nicely - I'll be out for a spin in my roadie tonight for sure. Thanks for the info!

Had to sell the 135 as the baby came and had to go get a family friendly vehicle and this fit the bill. I know what you mean by regular rims this is what mine was before the wheels..... it the only one I had on my phone prior to the wheels while he was having the miles removed (stone chips) from his paint. So now the X looks like it's factory fresh. !! |

Yea installed the running boards, theirs a dealer selling them on eBay brand new for $399 can't beat it. Do you have the oyster color interior ? Mines oyster / black. It's kind of that ivory white not tan or beige ..... I like the contrast a lot. Been thinking of swapping the headliner to black but that's a big tear up.... |

A little off topic but If you can you gotta do the infotainment swap it's really worth it and brings the car up to today's infotainment tech, running ID6 and it even upgrades all the sound effects and chimes of the new f15 when you do it.

A big upgrade from Europe is coming today! And Nope no coding required I got it from bimmer retrofit and it came coded and ready to go, just plugged it in and your good to go. Theirs a few pins you have to change like camera wires and mic pins but it's as plug and play as you could hope for. Have apple car play full blue tooth advance streaming and phone mirroring. It's a phenomenal upgrade to the existing system. |
