Mods for engine sound
I recently picked up my 135 dct and love the way it sounds. I was wondering I\'f any one has some suggestions on some mods to make it sound even better. It\'s my everyday car so something not over the top.

DCI, for better sound but decreased power output.

But I don't know what could change your engine sound more. Don't think a drop in filter could meet your requirement Coz they don't give you alot of sound. Maybe you can take alook at the AFE stage 2 airbox if urs is a N55. It looks sweet. Kcc

Well if you want to hear the mechanical sounds of the engine more, you could take off the top cover. It will look ugly, but you will probably hear a little more of the valvetrain and injectors (Which sound bad to me).
Otherwise, for free, you could do the golf-tee mod on your muffler flapper. If you like it, then leave it. If that isn't enough for you (but a step in the right direction) then get yourself a different axleback. If the golf-tee mod is too much for you, then at least you saved yourself some money, right?  If you want to hear the turbo whistle then any open-element air filter will be a step in the right direction.
