        Dinan makes a variety of performance mods for the 650i.

        I'm sure you could make them fit. Most exhaust shops should be able to fit them on. If they are sitting around, why not try?

        I don't know what sound you're looking for but it won't sound too good. The stock mufflers on the m6 and any car in general lower the sound of the engine, hence the reason why folks go aftermarket. The mufflers don't make the sound, the engine does, the muffler just adds back pressure and quiets down the engine. I just don't think it will add for a great sound. I'm interested in hearing it if you do it, though

        You should gut it then have Pops put it on. I know for other cars such as the new porsche turbo's they cut a hole in the factory exhaust for better sound.

        Yes, you could. I used to put Supersprint M6 mufflers on my 645ci, but the tips will protude a little longer to match with M6 rear bumper.
