Oh sweet! Finally gonna drop her?

Just a little render of what lowering the car would look like (dont mind the basic PS skills)

Once you get it done it's going to completely make your car totally different from now and you're gonna wonder why you waited so long to do this!

BuiltnBoostedZ · 01-24-2018, 09:37 PM

Updated my map data to 2018-1. Installed some new grills. Gonna wait until the spring to do springs.

lsturbointeg · 01-27-2018, 07:03 PM

yea! with warmer temperatures 44 degrees LOL I'm finally able to wash the car and get all the road salt off her! Busted out the power washer and my foam canon and a nice detail afterwards! Love my Chemical Guys!

I temporarily took it off because i felt it might be an issue with the snow. But I'll reinstall come Springtime. Also, before i put it back on I'm gonna have my muffler guy extend the exhaust tips out .5-1" past the diffuser since it sits inside

I'm glad you're going to reinstall! Don't take this the wrong way, but I really like your rear-end!

Yes sir 4” just like how they fill out the openings more than the stock. Honestly I love the sound. I have read many people don’t like it or what not but after searching for YouTube videos on the muffler delete they don’t do it justice.

Any drone at highway speeds?

At high speeds I don’t even hear it.
At low rpms I do get a little drone but I’ve had other cars with magnaflows and it’s not much of a big difference. My wife loves how the car sounds now so that’s a big plus. I’ve heard M3s and M5s with louder exhausts

I'm debating getting muffler delete as well. But the drone kinda worries me. I drive like 40 miles a day in my car for work so drone is a no no for me

lsturbointeg · 01-30-2018, 08:56 AM

Some people have different definitions of the meaning drone. When i had the loaner 235i with the M Performance exhaust it had a slight and i mean slight drone at lower rpm's. If anything it felt like more of a resonance. My Meisterschaft's are loud with a sweet exotic exhaust note. I can't say it drones because it sound sweet at all rpms. My coworker thinks it drones at cruising speeds but i don't think it does? To me i think drone is when you hear that resonance vibrating in your cabin and that can vary on high or low rpms. The muffler delete on a F10 from the hundreds of members who have all done it have reported the typical drone. Some have posted YouTube videos of it. Some have also gone back and removed the resonators and reported even more drone. Some members couldn't take it and had their OEM mufflers welded back on. I'm trying to remember the post but there were several members who have gone with the upgraded "Y" pipe with good results. I know bmwdoubles did what the call a "j pipe" that helped. He's got a thread about it

I get a little drone at low rpms. When she's cold, its pronounced, but after she warms up, you can't really hear it.
