Sound Clip/Experience w/ BW X-Pipe + OEM Muffler

I'm sure there's a clip out there I haven't come across yet, but looking for opinions, or even better a sound clip, of the BimmerWorld Resonated X-Pipe paired to a completely stock muffler on an E90 (I guess any E9x would work).

Want the volume but have it also be tame when cruising at low RPMs or on the highway.

Unless you can find a used BW forward x-pipe, your car has to be a true dedicated track/race car w/o street registration, for you to be able to buy a new one from BW. Blame the EPA, not BW. BW even stopped selling their e9x header-xpipe combo for street use

Yea I know EPA on a mission to ruin things and shove EVs down our throats.

I'm hoping to pick one up used. There was one but it already sold. Probably should've grabbed it...

Yes they certainly are trying.

Here’s one clip of the BW x-pipe:

Damn good find, thanks! Seems they want a local sale, but doesn't hurt to ask.

Yes I watched that clip. They had it paired with an aftermarket muffler. I want to see what an OEM muffler sounds like. I'm sure quieter but want an idea of the exact tone and volume.

Having sold AA and Challenge x-pipes over the years, it’s not difficult to box up a x-pipe and ship it. Good luck.

Also, judging by how rusty it is I doubt it's T304 as BW states. Which makes sense since Maganflow makes it for them and they almost exclusively use T409.
