If you put cutout flaps let's say before pipe goes into rear muffler - that will not give you deep growling sound unfortunately - you'll get more raspy droning sound. It has to go through rear muffler to acquire deep growl. I was looking to do same, but abandoned the idea in the end

I think 450 makes it too extensive to not just get mpe and resell if u go back to stock since mpe used still selling for ~$1k

sorry to revive this thread. im having the muffler shop change my round tips to square ones soon so i am wondering if i should also have them cut the stock exhaust and mod it so it sounds like MPE. do you guys think MPE is all straight pipe inside the muffler with only a short portion of perforated pipes to eliminate drone? somebody posted some pics of an MPE looking at the pipe outside in and it looks like straight pipe. if so, would it be better to mod stock exhaust for straight pipe inside and leave a short portion of perforated pipe so it sounds more like MPE?
I know some will say "Yeh straight pipe inside is muffler delete" but I think it is a little different with the short perforated pipe section to eliminate drone using all those empty chambers and the fiberglass material No one has ever cut up an MPE or do a snake head cam inside it so we really have no idea how it is structured internally... Anyone with MPE in Socal willing to help out and let me insert a snake head cam in their pipes if I buy a snake head cam? Sounds disgusting but you know what I mean lol

Diesels are the wrong engine for exhaust sounds. One of many reasons I picked a petrol.

Anyone know of a shop in NJ that does this mod? ACM said they don't do it to the X5s.
