Rogue Engineering Diablo
Exhaust
Rogue Engineering is
proud to introduce our E60 M5 DIABLO
exhaust. A cursory glance at the exhaust easily shows how this exhaust
excels in both performance while saving weight. However, a closer look
will show the pure artistry of its construction and elements of unique
design. Hear and feel the incredibly deep tone
that retains the unmistakable V10 wail at high RPMs with the Rogue
Engineering E60 M5 DIABLO exhaust. After nearly a year of development,
we're ready to release the beast into the marketplace!
The Rogue Engineering E60 M5 Diablo is
more than just great sounding exhaust. By studying the factory exhaust
system, it just made sense to develop the exhaust the way we did.

The factory system uses catalytic
converters and resonator in the system to help control sound
and emissions. Simply removing these items from the system would
theoretically add power, but also add unwanted noise levels. Other
companies that offer "full" exhaust solutions (complete front to back)
like to make these infinitesimal power increases but really are trying
to justify the added cost and tooling of the extra tubing and welding
required to produce this "system". When you weigh the benefits, it just
did not make sense to us when developing a full replacement system.
After studying the benefits of a
muffler-only replacement, we worked on the sound. Internal muffler
tuning done the old fashioned way, tweaking the dimensions of the
muffler, the internal perforated tubing (perforation size, spacing, and
tubing length) are all factored in to get the exact desired sound which
makes it unmistakably a Rogue Engineering DIABLO for the E60 M5. Since
this muffler design is a straight-through design, the performance gain
from the decrease in restriction is an expected benefit as well.

Rogue Engineering E60 M5 Diablo Exhaust Features
The RE MZ4 Diablo is made to fit exactly like factory. Features of MZ4
Diablo include:
- Weighs only 21 lbs. per side, 17
lbs. less than the factory muffler! (total savings of 34 lbs.)
100% T-304 stainless steel
construction and internals
Fully mandrel bent tubing, no crimps
or flattened areas
Mil-finished pipes and muffler,
mirror polished stainless steel quad 89mm straight
cut, staggered tips. Completely fills in factory valence without
modifications.
Full TIG welded construction, no
lock seams or pinch welds.
Factory-like hangers for OEM fit
Rogue Engineering logo tastefully
stamped in the body of the muffler
Flow-through design does not create
muffler "hot spots" found on chambered mufflers
Optimized tubing sizes and minimized
bends maintain exhaust velocity without compromising necessary
backpressure
Deep, throaty tone, without the
drone.
Will not change ground
clearance
Will not void factory
warranty
Will not affect
emissions
No permanent modifications required
for installation
All Rogue Engineering Diablo exhaust
are produced using only 100% full T-304 stainless steel because of
its consistent strength characteristics, corrosion resistance, and
wide range of materials (important for controlling sound and exhaust
flow).
Beware of some companies that pre-coat
their exhaust products with "thermal coatings". In fact, they may be
hiding inferior stainless steel or inferior welding processes. Rogue
Engineering Diablo exhausts are always TIG welded and never coated.
Some companies have chosen to build their
"stainless steel" exhausts with Grade 409 stainless, because it is less
expensive than 304. While Grade 409 will resist atmospheric and exhaust
gas corrosion, a light surface rust will form is most all atmospheres.
