If you have plans for catless downpipes in the near future, stick with your stock exhaust and invest your $$$ in the catless downpipes and see how you like it. The stock downpipes are restrictive for airflow & sound. Once you replace them with catless downpipes, your increasing airflow and noise. You may love your OEM system then. I've heard that setup before and it sounds really good. If you then decide you want something louder you can go with a different system that fits what you want. You can youtube EVOLVE Downpipes F10 M5 and see the video. Sounds amazing with the OEM system.

If you go the opposite, you run into the risk when you upgrade your downpipes, you may not like how loud your car is or how much drone there may be.

Just my two cents.. I know a few people who have said they wish they started downpipes first.

Note: Changing downpipes will trigger a CEL due to the O2s being deleted. Most are resolved with the JB4 while others like me went with a tune

If you do downpipes, you can pick this up to control your exhaust valve http://www.exhaustmeister.com/
Thanks!! This is exactly the input i was looking for. I have a Dinan piggy-back (stage 1) on the car now, I wonder if it has the ability to clear the engine code if the did your suggestion?

This is probably the route I'll go since I don't what it to be too loud.

Appreciate it 13M5F10.
No problem, I would caution you that I am not sure you can have both the JB4 and DINAN installed at the same time. Check with N54Tech. It may be possible just to connect the OBDIi and use those functions only without plugging into the connectors underneath the hood where your dinan is connected.

Just a thought and good to double check

For sound and performance you can't beat RPi.. It's a fantastic system
