Straight pipe

Hi guys I have a 09 335i E92 I have done a few exterior mods already and im thinking about getting a straight pipe. I dont want to cut my mufflers or the resg I went to a shop today he's spose to call me with a price I asked him if he can do a 3" exhaust starting from the cats all the way down to the tips 3.5" matte black tips and im planing on getting 3" downpipes soon. do you think the 3.5" tips will burn the bumper? I was wondering has anyone here done this and if you have how is it does it throw off codes? how does it sound? do you think you lost power or gained? any videos? any help would be greatly appriciated thanx a lot guys great to be a part of the BMW family now




Ill post some pics up this weekend of what I have done so fare after installing my matte black grill and the M3 trunk spoiler that i just recived.

Once again thank you Mike.

i think 3.5 is a perfect size for the tip IMO
there is a video of some uy that had a straight pipe 335. yes very loud. as for power gains they will be very min since your not getting rid of any cats but there will be less back pressure
EDIT: heres the vid....but keep in mind this is fully catless pure straight pipe

3.5 tips would be fine. people are even running 4" without problems. post pics/vids when you're finished.

Pics and videos will be up as soon as i can guys I might go with straight pipes all the way to the mufflers and put some mufflers cuz i think it might be too loud I dont wanna get tickets all day lol any good mufflers out there or should I just go with a custom? and if i dont change the downpipes would the dealers give me problems? if i just get pipes with a mufflers starting from the cats 3" pipes all the way and some mufflers would sound nice i think any other sudgestions? what can i do to make the car loud without it being too loud of the cops to give me problems?

Thanks guys
