Hi, wanting to do a muffler delete on my 540i. Does anyone have any sound clips of theirs? I’ve heard 340/440’s but they have a slightly different exhaust set up to the G30. How’s the drone? It appears that the 540i is quite well insulated. Thanks in advance.

what's the outcome of this? Did you do the muffler delete?

I recommend you get an actual muffler instead, especially when you own a luxury car like the five series.

The muffler delete will make the car louder, but I think it loses sound quality. It's raspy and drones inside the carbon on certain RPM.

Your better off just cutting the resonator out of you want a bit louder of a sound and going catted or catless downpipe.

It’ll be louder but more when you step on it instead of 24/7 unless that’s what you want.

There’s a few videos on YouTube but I have never heard one in person

Do not remove the muffers.

You will end up with drone/vibrations/rattling.

If you want good sound and you have some money to spend I'd recommend an axle back exhaust system.

But I highly recommend running high flow cats/catless down pipes and removing the resonators.

Absolutely 0 drone, still very quiet and has some noise if you want it.
