ISO: Mufflers + Diffuser
Hey guys,
So next on me mod list is the rear. I've already got the high-kick spoiler and blacked out my badges. Next is the low portion. I do have the M Sport package so I've been thinking about getting a CF diffuser (eh on painted one) and new mufflers. The only thing about the mufflers is that I still want to be able to hold a conversation at low revs but loud when I'm "having fun". I'm not trying to break the bank(just graduated and starting my IT job). EDIT: What the process of getting an M5 diffuser? Do I need to modify anything? Thank you for your input!

Here's my setup. It's almost un-noticeable when cruising around but when you get on it, it has a phenomenal sporty and tuned sound to it. Adding a VRSF catless downpipe soon, I can only imagine how that will sound.
OEM M5 diffuser painted gloss black, OEM M5 mufflers w/ Cyba 3.5 inch gloss black slip on tips, resonator delete w/ x-pipe, 36 inch j pipes (also known as quarter length resonators). I had the j pipes made made for extra assurance that drone would not occur, probably overkill but I take clients around so it was worth it to me. |

I went with a couple name brand cat backs on my 550 and was only happy with the sound of the Dinan mufflers. Only ones that seem to retain the German car sound. Thi si a wicked Setup above with the J pipes and the X crossover but I bet the muffler shop charged a pretty penny for it.

Here's a few options for your diffuser choice. all come in carbon fiber but you can paint them as well. your OEM diffuser i believe just pops off and you just reinstall the new diffuser the same way. couple of things to keep in mind is some of the one's you order from Ebay are the tab issues. you may have to drill some holes in the tabs and install screws to keep them in place like what i did and other's have had to do to.
The MSport has a wide selection of diffusers to choose from whether you're looking for carbon fiber, single/quad tip configurations as far as the mufflers do you want to do a quads or single? which ever way you decide will also determine what diffuser to go with because you don't want to pick a quad diffuser and you end up getting a single tip exhaust. as far as exhaust goes Dinan like mentioned above is pretty tame. Remus has actually a pretty good exhaust note to it which one of our site sponsor Mike sells them. alot of guys have also gone with the Megan's which has a pretty mellow tone to it and they come in single, quad tips as well as many different finishes ie black, burnt, chrome, ect...
