Hey guys,

Anyone got any recommendations on a decent after market exhaust/muffler for a BMW 550?.

I want something that makes the engine sound throaty, something legal!!, and not too loud.

Any ideas?, places? Manufacturers??

Aren't they all illegal?

Nope

How do you afford a 550 on a cops salary?

Go on youtube, pick what sounds best to you.

What about dinan? They have some pretty decent after market exhausts? Try hartge too, they seem to be a pretty good German tuner

Thanks buddy. Thats EXACTLY what I want. Done the you-tube thing, there was a Magnaflow on their. Sounded nice.

You can get the dinan stuff at calgary bmw, not sure about hartge but tunerworks should be able to help you with that

I've heard a few Magnaflow's now paired up with V8's, you just can't go wrong!

Awesome. Thanks a lot!

Go see Tunerworks, they will have. A lot of options depending on the $$$$ you want to spend.

A good place for exhaust installs - Minute Muffler and Brake on 32nd (beside XS Cargo). Go see Ravi, he's a Beyond member as well.

BMW makes their own performance exhausts as well. If you go to Calgary BMW for service see Andrew Lobas (Service advisor) he is awesome to deal with and will take care of you without a doubt.

not sure about entire systems, but if you want adjustability check out varex mufflers. They've got an adjustable butterfly in them so you can switch from muffled to straight thru for when you 'hit the track'

Tunerworks will have the broadest selection.

Eisenmann, Dinan, Corsa, and Remus all make great systems. Corsa is the only one that doesn't drone (I'm speaking based on e92 M3 systems but I think that would carry over).

Davenport is a Corsa dealer so you could check with them as well.

Ticket for 'widened exhaust'

Seriously though, Magnaflow's are loud and all, but I think there are better sounding exhaust systems from some of the German tuners...

Awesome thanks all.
