I really don't think it sounds overly blowy! I just watched a video of an S with a stock everything with the camera positioned the same as in your video and the difference in sound is amazing! The stock system sounds blowy if you just rev it at a stand still and the mod'd one doesn't sound much different in that respect.
the difference is much more of a bass note to the exhaust in comparison to standard.
atleast thats what I think

I totally agree f3 ang! This is why I'm doing the same as you tomorow morning. Unlike Ben, I'm going for in between yourself and him at 28mm. I do have a CAI so will have to try getting a mobile vid of before and after on idle, and revving whilst at standstill as it may sound different.
Many thanks to you though because the mod on the z4 forum is a bit more complex than yours (with the bends in the link pipe an 'all) but think this way probably suits the s2k much better.

belongs to them,,,, it will be interesting to hear all three,i know it's not a perfect sound but which exhaust is,i have heard some terrible system's which you know is going to make someone's ears bleed and some very nice sounding system's, and everyone will have there own opinion depending on what they have, but for the moment and cost this is OK, but my self if funds were there i like the sound of Garyb's and soundwave's i forgot the name , i think it's H something or other, i think i need to get hold of a oem rear section so i can have a play with another idea

Sorry chet, this is the best i can do, at idle, then off down the street at morning pace then afternoon pace,
as you can hear at normal pace it isn't to obtrusive, this is with a 22mm link pipe, so will be interesting to hear
benb89's, do you think it sounds like it's blowing as has being suggested, only it's being bugging me,
