6 Series
The BMW 6 Series builds on BMW's sporty heritage with aggressive lines and an incredible motor to back the design up. Available in coupe and convertible trims with a standard 4.8 liter engine producing 360 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque, the 6-series is a popular choice that exceeds expectations. |

My new mufflers
I have posted an exhaust sound video before, when I removed all 4 resonators and did a step up x-pipe...well since then, I had been working with a muffler manufactor to make me prototype mufflers, here is the finished product:
I will be uploaded a revving video later PS: I may end up having these manufactured, or I may not...I need to do a more in-depth cost analysis to determine if it would be a profitable product to sell.

Here is a revving video I filmed real quick; these videos were filmed with phones and I don't feel they capture the true sound and powerful feel of the exhaust but I think they give a pretty good idea.

It's not problem for a muffler shop. The most likely route would be a sleeve over the two pipes then weld that. You can also butt weld two identical pipes together but it's not as strong and takes some skill.

Like I said they were just recorded using phones.
Anyone feel that they would want to buy this exhaust? I'm not making any sales, to avoid forum penalty I want to make that perfectly clear, just gauging other 6er enthusiast interest, in this exhaust setup, and as I stated earlier not 100% sure if I'll end uo having them produced, just curious to hear thoughts and opinions. What are mufflers and x-pipes worth to you personally? And would your interest be in the laddered x-pipe(pre-fabbed that increases in size in the middle the back down on exit to increase flow and performance) and mufflers? Or just the mufflers? I included a picture to see how the muffler's tips look. Sent from my LG-P999 using Bimmer App

Guys a quick update, here is the x-pipe I used and I'd be having manufactured, notice the step increase in diameter in the center, for sound and flow it makes a difference. I can't sell them yet, but if I had to assume a fair price I would probably do $60 + shipping. If their is interest, please respond, and I will become a forum sponsor and could start selling and shipping within two weeks.
