F85 X5M stock exhaust + VRSF DPs

E92zilla · 08-02-2019, 08:40 PM

Little sound clip

Installed VRSF DPs , fitment was spot on and sound great. Drove the car for two days on stock tune and no codes !

Added a X-pipe after resonators, lost sound.

Added cutouts before muffler, after X-pipe , I think out of all the setups DPs with stock exhaust had the best tone, the X-pipe seems to have removed that tone.

Wow sounds amazing

How much performance did you pick up with the down pipes? Sounds nice!

Sounds like the BM3 tune with burble. Mine sounds like this with stock exhaust and AR catless pipes. Absolutely no reason to get an exhaust with this car, just catless DPs. My catless F85 makes my previous E70 catless X5M with an exhaust sound like vacuum cleaner.

I have the BM3 tune, so this is my next logical upgrade. What I like about BM3 is: you can open the exhaust valves permanently, set to automatic or turn completely off. Thanks for the tip!

I went from bone stock to the VRSF catless DPs I had ceramic coated and PTP turbo blanket and it made a noticeable difference in power and sound.

As of now car is BM3 stage 2 , DPs, PTP turbo blanket.

Yes I called PTP for verification, fitment is perfect and performs great ! The blanket is intended to replace factory shield, but from other installs I've seen online can also be used under factory shield.
