I do know I want one...lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

740i_Lou 5 Report post Posted December 18, 2013 Nice ride. I just bought one too. Did you just cut out your rear mufflers and straight pipe it? Is it very loud? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kulgan 1042 Report post Posted December 18, 2013 Seems to be a influx of 7 series into here recently - nice to see something a bit different, kool cars. When I joined the forum over a year ago there where only a few e38's here.. I guess they're becoming more affordable now. Be nice to have a 7 series meet and cruise sometime. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kulgan 1042 Report post Posted December 18, 2013 Nice ride. I just bought one too. Did you just cut out your rear mufflers and straight pipe it? Is it very loud? I cut the mufflers off and welded stright pipe on with a downturn at the bumper. Not too loud and has that nice V8 rumble now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I owned one about 11 years ago when they were still expensive, was always a bonus if a service came in at under $800 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil-540i 166 Report post Posted December 19, 2013 My 540 is booked for cat delete / rear muffler delete tomorrow arvo..........was supposed to have happened ages ago.......but D-day is here on it, yay!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kulgan 1042 Report post Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Mint. Was going to do similar but have a couple of tips and trim the bumper to suite. Nice. I'm eventually going to do the tips out the bumper as well. I owned one about 11 years ago when they were still expensive, was always a bonus if a service came in at under $800 I can imagine. I bought the reset tool off trademe so I can do the full service myself. My 540 is booked for cat delete / rear muffler delete tomorrow arvo..........was supposed to have happened ages ago.......but D-day is here on it, yay!! Are you going stright pipes all the way though or an aftermarket muffler? I'd be weary of drone in the cabin.

Phil-540i 166 Report post Posted December 19, 2013 Straight where the cats are / were, same with rear muffler - just delete & straight pipe the girl, she'll be right. Its got a awesome stereo to drown any excessive racket...........& I'm lead to believe they only start to get a bit droney if you play round with the centre muffler / box...........

740i_Lou 5 Report post Posted December 19, 2013 I thought deleting the cats threw up errors? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil-540i 166 Report post Posted December 19, 2013 Not if ya do it right..................& easy as to do on a E34 series, as theres no post-cat oxygen sensor. Easily falls into the 'theres no valid reason for keeping this $hit category', so its about to be weakest linked............goodbye!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
