Full Exhaust HELP!

Hi guys,

So I just began the journey of modding my car.. I am interested in purchasing a Meistercraft full exhaust system. Just for background info I have a 2014 535xi Non MSport with about 100k miles on it. When telling my car buddies what that I wanted to purchase the full exhaust system they thought I was crazy because I was going to run into a bunch of problems because my car has so many miles.

So my question is:
1. Is it even worth it to get a full exhaust system?
2. What kind of problems will I run into if I do?
3. I am assuming that with the full exhaust system my car would be able to handle more boost so I was thinking about purchasing a JB4 chip. However due to the amount of miles I have I am afraid that it will push the turbo to its limits and that will end up failing on me as well.

Please input any knowledge that I could use into making my final decision..

Thank you!

Bro, it's your car! do whatever you want! is it a lease? if that's the case i can see what's the point if you're gonna return it soon. but if you bought it than by all means! really, it all comes down to what are your goals?

Car is financed so I own it. I don't really care about what they say but I am more worried about causing issues to the car since it has such high mileage. I don't wanna open up a can of worms just by installing a full exhaust system and a JB4
