330i bmw performance exhaust

fitted this to my e93 a bit disappointed with it really too quiet have listened to some on you tube and they sound fantastic as does the 335i version, just wondering if bmw have quietened the latest versions, also wondering what the effect would be if i removed the centre silencer, cars done 1000miles since fitting and have the vacuum disconected.

Be patient......mine took around 3 months / 4K miles to mature. Now it's awesome but not too intrusive, more an addictive kinda sound that's led to most of my recent journeys with the windows down

Pleased to hear it - told you it would "mature". Have recently taken to reversing up to park in front of my garage door and giving it a good plip - magic

I quite like the sound (no pun) of this exhaust. How much can I get one of these for and where from?

I can't make the car faster but at least I can make it sound faster.........
