Love that deep sound. Not too raspy at all. Have you dyno'd your setup?

I have this setup

sounds like the OP kind of. no drone, some increase rasp and it gets mean sounding at like 4k RPMs.

so far so good

EDIT : I also noticed a notable power increase from test pipes to the dinan x pipe. the test pipes were on a different m3, but the dinan pipe made a very noticeable difference in power. id say easily 20+ whp.

Sounds good...especially during "overrun" where there is that gutteral V8 sound, but instantly turns into a typical S65 smooth V8 howl when accelerating again. Sounds "honest," natural, and clear in its voice, not like the boomy-bassy exhaust of other aftermarket companies.

I personally didn't like the Test pipes & MPE, it was just way to0 loud inside the cabin of the car. Now i am looking into a Dinan x-pipe or Challenge sport. Ohh plus the rattle here and there during starts, the test pipes quality is 6/10.
