I know there are a number of enthusiasts and owners here in Canada. I want to install exhaust on my M5 but not sure if I should go Dinan or Eisenmann. Both are warrantee approved. I am looking to perk up the sound. Dinan have 3 1/2" tips which may add to the look but sound is the deciding factor. Opinions?

I have also just ordered wiremesh kidneys and lower grille similar to the pic but the kidneys have an alpine white frame. I have seen a few M3's done this way and I quite like the look. These are real high quality electro-polished stainless using factory frames. The pattern is very much the same as what is installed on the XLR-V.

Which Eisenmann are you looking at; I've heard their Meisterschaft and it is absolutely UN-BELIEVABLE. I am looking for the sound clip now, it's super intense.

Ahh, here it is.

The first time I heard that I was speechless, sounds like an F1 car.

Here is their Kries-sieg too: http://www.kreissieg-usa.com/video.p...20Off%20Action

Ya, if they can make something even 1/2 that good for the 335i I will be all over it. The idle excites my loins.

I'd go to Bimmerfest, Bimmerforums, or Roadfly and ask around there.

I guess I'm in the minority here. I'm not liking the Meisterschaft at all. It's a bit too tuner ricer for me.

I like the Kreissieq much better. Sounds like an airplane.

Call me a fanboi but I like the sound of the G Coupe better.

Exhaust... did someone ask about exhaust?????

Hey guys just got in from a little fun in the sun (holy crap it's cold here)

Anyway... here's a great site with tons of clips Klangford

From what I've found you really have to watch which *version* you go with from each manufacturer.
Some race versions are very loud

I'm going with Supersprint sport myself.

Dinan is a bit more money but their "sport" (not race) exhaust is suppose to be a bit more subdued when just regular driving. I do not want my car to sound like a tuner car all the time. When I stomp on it though, I want people to get out of my #*@) way and when I pass wonder what the hell just went by

Dinan released the exhaust for the new E60 M5 this week. Hmm. Such tough choices. I am going to have to swallow hard though when I fork over almost 4K Can. for an exhaust system.
