New here w/ question I've had for long time
What is it exactly about the z's, fx's, and g35s that give the purring exhaust tone? Is it the mid-pipe or the resonator or something else? I love the sound on my 05 coupe which I'm not going to modify till I can trade it in for a 07+ but I was wondering how to get the purrrrring on my bmw? Please if someone can give a logical, coherent answer and not some waste of time answer saying how much they hate me because I asked a question. (sarcasm..)

do this for you. just thought Id share
oh ya, engine setup has lots to do with tone. as does the
mid engine placement
er NO.
anyone who thinks FI exhaust sounds remotely stock. need to go back to stock exhaust and listen to it again.
The only exhaust that sounds like a louder stock exhaust is the Nismo.
No other car has the echoing sound that the G/Z/Fx makes.
To answer your question, it's a combination of the resonator and the muffler.
When I had a dent in my midpipe of the nismo exhaust it doesn't echo anymore. So the midpipe and the muffler creates a resonating sound that the G makes.
