WARNING! This exhaust is not "loud" but ideal for individuals who wants a deeper tone and budget in mind.

Finally, I installed the quads this afternoon and I am happy with the results. The sporty tone of this exhaust is ideal for me particularly with the family during travels. So far, I drove 30 mins from the shop to my house and did not experience any drone from 1200-3000 rpm / 55-75 mph ranges. Aside from the 100% all-stainless steel construction and inexpensive set-up ($250 hardware +$150 installation), i only have one gripe which is the 3.5" tailpipe that is too big for my taste.

The hardware came from an e60 quad set-up exhaust from this vendor (http://www.ebay.com/itm/280926604116...116%26_rdc%3D1) and modified to fit the F10. This is the exact exhaust from umnitza except for the $700+shipping price tag (http://www.umnitza.com/e60-5series-q...st-p-5678.html).

Modifying the e60 exhaust to f10 is not too bad. It has the same length requirements and good mandrel bends to start with. The exhaust shop had to repositioned the hangers and tips and I was out in two hours labor time. So far i only have pictures that I took from the exhaust shop and a video from an e60 with this ebay-special exhaust. Will post more tomorrow.
