I'm really hoping our "street" setup looks like this. I'm posted this in another thread. We did this system for a local custom on his E550. It sounded really nice on it too. He also hand made the tips inspired by the newer E63.

We will see how it goes. NOTE: this pic is before full install to the tip looks a bit off when lines up to the bumper

Those squared tips look hottt! I am sure whatever you guys choose it will be classy and aggressive at the same time

Esh

I like it. What kind of something do you have?

Ali_E55

well a ceap way to make mufflers aggressive, open them replace the roundy pipes with direc ones and do couple of holes (alot less then the stock) stuff the coton/fiber in, weld them. install them, and ta da

if u want i can record a video for stock cheap modified mufflers.

Make it sound anything like an SLR and I am in....

How is your sl55 coming along hooley?

This would be a great mod if they are priced right. I cant justiy a ton of money on a exhaust. I did that with my 5 series and in the end it was not worth the 4k.

MBH motorsports

Slowly LOL. I'm hoping to realistically start Tuesday. Once my car is in the shop the project should go fast

Yikes! I'm hoping (fingers crossed) less than half of that. I really want to bring something a bit more affordable to the table.

jayhawkblk

That would be great. Because doing the math for an exhaust header and mufflers this could get real expensive real fast. The lower the cost the better.

mikey33

That sounds good. Be sure to post video or sound clips up when you get it done!

Bellevue_E55

any updates ? ...... i have cash for wheels but scaring little kids and the elderly sounds like more fun

Sunir

good project hooley...i suppose you will be working on an exhaust kit for the SL55 using your own car as the test mule? I would be interested in the possibilty of going with a rear exhaust, maybe? Since this is more of a sound thing (SL55 factory rear mufflers are straight through flowing for performance) it's more of a cost and time based decision. Keep up the good work bro

chiromikey

the sl won't need new mufflers...if anything, once you have headers on and cats removed, you'll be searching for a way to quiet it down!

I'm working with an 55 of a Exhaust project, However, We are not 100% sure its what we want. When I get what think is a winner, Then I'll be calling in the E55.

mikey33

I cannot wait to hear you sl55 hooley and the difference from stock! Also, who's this e55 you will be calling in . Keep up the good work .

mikey33

Any updates Mike? Still excited!

MBH motorsports

In all honesty, I'm just not happy with anything we've come up with, sound wise at the moment. I'm sure we will get the right system, but for know we are at the drawing board..... Again.

mikey33

Sounds good Mike. Let me know when you find that sound that rips.

MBH motorsports

I've been back to the drawing board before. We will get it, its just a matter of time.

a friend of mines just put a Gintani exhaust on his M3...that things sounds insane. I dunno if its the M3 v8 or what...but it makes me want an M3...

Bramage

Keep on plugging away, I know you will get it.. and when you do..


On the other subject-
You should see how many stock exhaust systems are laying aroung Gintani. Not just stock, some very expensive titanium units, just disgarded. I believe they make some great stuff for the M3 crowd. I only go there for one reason

mikey33

Any updates yet with the sound? Been dreaming of what it will be like, but until than I know your working hard

MBH motorsports

We are finishing up a G55 lift kit. Its been the biggest project we have ever done. I'll be calling on you very soon

mikey33

G55 lifted? I want to see pictures. I might buy one of those someday because they are just awesome looking!

MBH motorsports

I've got pictures on my work computer. Its friggin sick!. all new fully custom swing arms, custom springs, gas tank bash guard. No to mention this thing has full night vision and thermal imaging cameras. Along with every power adder you can put on a 55k motor. IIRC, we broke the G55 1/4 record in this truck before it went under the knife. It ran like a 12.8 or 12.7 at Speedworld.

I'm expecting it to be done this week. Parts are off to powder coating. Once we get those back this thing will be ready.

Its been tying up a lift for about 3 months now. I cant wait to get that beast out of the shop.
