Thanks mge. Please post videos of your x3 after the exhaust install. Im really interested to hear the sound inside and outside the vehicle. I'm interested in buying an aftermarket exhaust as well and your experience will help me with my decision.

Monsma, thanks for the link to realoem. As you indicated the 428i has the active sound design module but the x3 doesn't appear to have it. There is quite a debate as to whether it actually introduces artificial engine sounds into the cabin. We know on the M's, it does. However, it's being debated whether it's doing the same on the lower end bmw's.

Btw, I also drive a 228i over the weekend and it sounded great as well. Same n20 motor, with the deep, throaty roar. Awesome sound. Why didn't it make it into the x3?!? Frustrating.
