[QUOTE="julianpang, post: 578640, member: 6542"] Just came back from cny holiday last weekend. I was in Penang and i was so bored and was driving around looking for BMW workshop to get my alternator bearing fixed. At the workshop, I came across a brand new unsed original oem exhaust back box for E34 525i left laying around there. Someone left it there 7 years ago and never went back to pick it up. The mech offered me at only $300 otherwise, he was going to throw it away. I was so excited and it is expensive to buy it new and you can't find it. I got it installed in penang itself. I just completed a full tank for pj/KL driving and i drove my normal self which sometimes i drove hard. This time i get 450km with $129. Thats an improvement. The new exhaust is a lot quieter than my old one. My previous one had humming noise during idling. I get much better response espeacially in low and mid end now. It is so nice to drive. [/QUOTE]
