Best Exhaust for 3.0i
I'd like to stay away from the custom route so I can easily switch back if I ever have to sell the X and not really interested in only doing the X-pipe. I'm looking for a loud setup so I would like to stay away from the Remus system.. I've looked into the following: Billy Boat, Eisenmann, Supersprint, and Tubi. Right now I'm leaning towards the Billy Boat as it close to half the price of the other 3. I've been checking here and eBay everyday but nothing used ever pops up (I would love to get a Eisenmann or Supersprint used) If you have any advice or input it is much appreciated! Thanks, Dan

I know you say you don't want custom, but unbolt at the flanges right after the center silencer and run 2 straights to the rear eliminating the rear silencers. I'm sure you will get your sound that way. As well as being able to revert back. That is my exact plan myself.

I have scoured everywhere for somebody who has done this to a X5. No luck at all, everybody seems to swap out the middle silencer and leave the rears. I did this on my Chrysler 300 I have and the result was very nice.

Anyone have any input on the Billy Boat exhaust? I'm tempted to get it but I'm afraid it won't be as loud as want it.. I might have to wait for a used Eisenmann Race to pop used or just bite the bullet and spend the extra $$.

I met a guy at Corvettes at Carlisle last year. He had a BB exhaust on his 02 4.4i. While it sounded good, there was a tinge at the top end. Just too rough for my taste. Otherwise is sounded good before 6K rpm.
Now I had a BB exhaust on my Twin Turbo and THAT sounded great!!! I know you have a 3.0, but not many mod the X's this way. Most of what I've seen in mods is appearance and not performance.

But the amount of time money and work that it required I just couldn't take it. I haven't had a z32 that had working Ac or heat. Always had a bad compressor, so I took it out and always had a bad heater core and I wasn't prepared to rip the entire dash out to replace the damn thing. Then the amount of rubber I went through. It was just insane. So I got sensible and got a Nissan pathfinder, that lasted for all of 6 months. Then it was like a bad porno. Just started buying and flipping cars. It was an obsession. I checked into the Henry ford clinic and I was cured. Then came along my BMW. Then I started buying tools of all sorts and computers. I'm a junkie again. Oh well. Still cheaper than buying women. That is... Until the tranny goes. Lol
