Best exhaust for X5 4.8is

ftara · #1 07-15-2010, 05:18 PM

Hey guys new to the forum, alot of other bmw forums take weeks to get a reply back. Was curious from remus, rpi, dinan, and whatever else is out there which would be a best pick for an exhaust for the 4.8. i dont want it to be loud all the time like a little pathetic civic, rather a angry growl when pressed on and quiet when cruising.

i have a dinan and it was quiet and groweld before i took off the resonator and put on the xpipe.

Is dinan over rated? I was told eisenmann is way to loud. I was planning on getting dinan all around. s2 package, but before i spend the money i rather ask and see whos done it before..

i just got the exhaust. I personally don't think you get your money's worth for the HP gain you get. 300-400 dollars for a cold air intake for what. 3hp if that.

yea the whole package would prob cost me 4k+, but ur not the first to tell me about it being over rated.

eisenmann has a sport tuned version... i dont know how much diff. in sound from the race version

yea i cant seem to find a eisenmann video online with the sport tuned for the x5 which is lower in sound.

Remove resonator and replace with x-pipe. Most bang for the buck. That's what I did.
And I do have Eisenmann race as well on another car in my garage.
