straight piped 535i. what y'all think ?

Hey guys so I recently put on a rvg downpipe and I have to say the car sounds and feels amazing. What you guys think of the sound ? Anything else I can do you think? I’m straight piped and tuned of course. https://youtube.com/shorts/7Sxsg8AUF...TrGRD6Jlbbe9w6

So you didn’t actually straight pipe the car… you threw on a downpipe in and kept the mufflers. Correct?

If you’re looking for louder volume, you could straight pipe it (remove mufflers). Could remove resenators too.

But if you’re looking for a different noise, you could look into different mufflers.

In my opinion (not that you asked for it), the N55 with a catless downpipe with stock mufflers is loud but not overbearing. They’ll hear you coming for sure.

I was fully straight piped with Catless dp and it sounded HORRIBLE! I have since added to resonators to save my sanity but still needs something.
