Muffler Delete on 35d??

I am curious if anyone has done a muffler delete on the 35d or a performance exhaust system on one. Looking to see what would sound good, and would love to see what you guys have come up with.

Remember that muffler delete can make the exhaust sound really loud and get an enormous amount of drone.

Not necessarily the case with every car. BMW’s usually have resonators and cats which help to reduce all of those negative effects. I have owned a couple V10 M5/M6’s over the years, and those needed one of the exhaust deleted to sound good. I also got no drone of negative issues from the way I did it. Not saying this is the case here, but that is why I was asking. Figured someone here has first hand experience with this motor and setup.

I also would guess the turbo keeps this exhaust pretty tame.

I am guessing it would sound the same as if any other diesel truck out there (f250, etc). Can't really get a good sound out of diesel without serious effort.
