Hello fellow M5Board members. Yes, it's another one of those exhaust threads. I am a very new member here as you can tell by my post count (under 10 posts), so I figured I would introduce myself with my very first mod to my 2006 M5.

I wanted an exhaust that sounded like most of the super expensive ones a lot of us on here have and can afford. I, however, cannot afford to drop thousands of dollars on metal piping and fiberglass. So, I set out to create my own for under $500. I believe I succeeded since it only cost a total of $387 including installation!!

Can you please tell me EXACTLY where to get all of what you just got. I already removed the secondary cats but i need the muffler section. Sounds awesome!

Sound

Sounds good. Best bang for the buck :M5launch:

 

[ONEofONE]

Nice!

 

[GrowningUp]

Sounds surprisingly good!

Only if I didn't daily my M, just a little too loud for a daily driver.

I actually DD my ///M and in Houston rush-hour traffic. Its not that bad to be honest. My WRX is WAY worse. I am wanting to take a few more videos. One from the drivers standpoint, one of flybys, and one of my neighbors getting pissed off at my cold starts in the morning :biggrin:. I have a decibel meter that I plan on using to take a couple of readings as well.

Yes, he is a noob M owner. Its not his DIY exhaust, it's not his enthusiasm...he still has tread on the rears.

Welcome, fellow M Dork.

So if i already have the secondary cats removed and want to get rid of my mufflers. I would only need the resonators and exhaust tips right? Here are some pics of my setup now.

Confused, you have a Meisterschaft exhaust and you want to molest it?

When i bought the car i was told its a section 3 Meisterchaft, but after posting it on a thread and asking around it looks like i just have a Meisterchaft x pipe. These are the stock mufflers. It's not loud at all, so i could already tell i didn't have Meisterchaft mufflers.

Oh okay then, yes, slap a couple resonators up front were the cats used to be and rip those mufflers off and enjoy 10 cylinders of ecstasy.

Allright cool. So the resonator muffler section you sent me a link to will replace these mufflers I have and then just bolt on the universal tips right? Thanks again for all the help!

not to bad at all for the price!

Exhausts are tricky you have to get the back pressure just right or you can lose HP. Did you dyno your car before your exhaust install? It would be good to know if you made gains over the stock set up
