The same would be for a piece of pipe called the exhaust.......Of course, the design would be a compromised design befitting the intended ROAD use ie. driven by the enthusiast, uncles, aunties or even the occassional teenager in the instance of your BMW. If you want to put this car into the track, then its a different "use" ie. differing sustained rpms, less emphasis on fuel economy, emissions etc. ( my race car drinks 2 litre/lap at Sepang...and its a 4 cylinder! )So the moral of story is....its horses for courses, so mod ur car at your own peril! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
