Creaver 55 Report post Posted February 6, 2008 Hey guys, just purchased a 540i and have noticed the exhaust note is quite mild. Just wondering if you guys know anywhere in South Auckland that do good exhaust systems. I am after full exhaust including headers. Also if you guys could give me an estimate on price, that'd be great too. Regards, Ian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cainchapman 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2008 Ian, I'd be surprised if you need headers. The ones that come on the car are really nice. I am in the process of doing something to mine. And I have a decibel meter, so I will be testing the before and after results. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My mate said they look a little restrictive. Edited February 6, 2008 by Creaver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My mate said they look a little restrictive. i would look at the rear muffler first.At 210 kw there s nothing wrong with the basic M60 engine.....just think about what sort of output ss commodores and the like had until recently......and they started with a 5 litre v8besides a rear muffler or two will till be cheaper than a set of headers....

I've got an aftermarket DTM twinpipe setup on mine and the note is anything but mild Goes hard, sounds great and there's no mistaking the fact that you're in a V8 I inherited it however, so can't give you any clues as to price Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
