Lightbulb A custom ISF Exhaust Done Today

Sooooo My friend owns a performance shop mostly BMW AUDI's are tuned their...
So we were talking about my car and how I want to order a Joe Z exhaust...So he goes on to tell me what he just did to a 08 M3 and what I should do.......And that is:

Drop the stock mufflers and do 2 1/2 inch piping from the spilt behind the resonator!

So I agreed haha

So he dropped the mid section and custom made a pipe from the flang to the quad tips, and he then used dual tips angled behind the stock tips so it looks just like the stock muffler system, after that he pained it black

So we start it up and WOOOOW what a beast released! the sound is ridiculous...It sounds great idle and driving, he flew past the shop a few times and it was amazing!!

I know the bashing is coming... but let me just say if it didnt come out right i was ordering the joe z exhaust so im going to give this a shot, my other 2 cars all have top notch exhaust on them so its not a cheap thing its was just a friend and his experience talking!

Im going to try to figure out how to make a sound clip and pics commin soon!!

Hey Joe Z

I know you know your stuff when it comes to these cars!

Am I going to ruin or damage anything by not having rear mufflers?

The mechanic that did it assures that its A-OK ????

Ur feedback is appreciated!

Let me be the first to ask but is it mandrel bent piping or crush? If it's crush then yeah you're going to get bashed hardcore.
