@QikNish What made you choose Raze over Akra or why did you not go down the Meisterschaft route?
Wasnt particularly looking for Raze... the car had a Miltek exhaust that should have sounded better but had a lowzy custom mid section. I visited Jason at Lusso Bepsoke in Ballito for some work on my C63 and he mentioned he had the Raze 2 piece front lip and titanium exhaust. So jumped at it. Sounds nice. Not raspy or obnoxius. I just want the N55 mid section to finish it off. I

Miltek is available if anyone is interested in buying it.

I've also been searching for an n55 midpipe and haven't had any luck. If you have a decent budget, you can still get them new from Bmw, they are roundabout the R5-R8k mark the last i checked. I am honestly not in the market for a Miltek, Ashley from DRS suspensions did offer to sell me a new one as he is the agent for Miltek, however you're welcome to send me a pm with a price and your contact details. I have a brand new set of oem pads front and rear for the 1M if you might be interested, the front takes the regular M3 pad but the rear is unique to the car.

Has to be 1series and e-series unfortunately, the 3series midpipe has two seperated sections that go to the backbox in a y configuration whereas on the 1series they go together to the passenger side rear wheel where the backbox sits.

I priced that n55 mid section at BMW couple of weeks ago.. was just over R10k. Alot!

That's madness, on my previous n54, i had a custom mid made with double resonators to eliminate rasp....i would rather go down that route then spend 10k for two pieces of pipe, especially if its not titanium!
