But for real, I, for one, truly appreciate the amount of time you dedicate not only to your own ride but to contributing to this forum.
Thanks man, it really does take a lot of time to put all of this stuff together. I enjoy the process though; It is a nice break my day to day life as a typical working stiff.

I hope to make Mfest this year too (fingers crossed)
Good chance we may miss it again. The baby is due in mid March

All system configurations are suposed to make similar power, but the prood will be in the Dynos.

Me too, each step I am learning something new!
There are quieter options avail. I just tend to lean toward the ear punishing side of the spectrum most of the time.

Will this work with our sensitive tunes???? who knows??
ESS told me they feel the stock Euro system is about as good as it gets for the s54 and they feel bmw made an amazing system...... i do agree they did an awesome job... but their can always be improvements.
I agree with you Byron. I am blown away by having so many quality options for a low production car.

In regards to the tune, I talk to AJ with ESS about the exhaust system. He stated that the tune for our SC cars is actually more adaptive than the OEM tune. He believes that as long as our sensors are in place, that this system will be no problem. The proof will come with time and Dynos, but it was encouraging to here this new from the guy who writes the ESS tunes
