performance exhaust 330i at last sounds good

after having the exhaust for 6000 miles its finally sounding good has a nice deep burble at low speeds and really starts to howl above 4000rpm still not sure its worth £700 though im also really liking the 330i im sure its run in now as its a lot livelier but does like a drop of 99 octane not using the 335d as its for sale but warming to petrol again!

Where did you souce the exhaust from? Are the tailpipes larger / different from standard (pics)?

I take it this is a cat back system?
