Hi guys,

I am after a FULL stainless system for my M535i but I dont think any manufacturers do a pre designed one - where do i start looking for a custom job and what sort of price would I be looking at?

Thanks - Jon :D

Fritz bitz , at donny show i was speaking to guy with a Alpina B9 with full stainless replica , very nice finish, very similair to e30 exhaust pipes at the rear, the noise was soooo good, sounded like a v8. system will be circa 800 notes

worth the price for the noise alone

POwerflow put together generic boxes which make loud noises. There's no design behind it. The quality of stainless....mmm......more mild than stainless!

Supersprint costs only a bit more and your guaranteed a perfect fit. They develop the systems properly making sure there is no boom at motorway speeds etc.

The other option is to go to Miltek or BTB and get them to make something for you. They always test their exhausts on the cars.

Fritz - they are known to fib alot but give them a try.

Rememeber also that there is no real advantage buying stainless. While the outside may last for ever the internal baffles usually blow out ike normal exhausts and its then useless.
