Improve exhaust sound
Stock f10 m5... I actually like the stock exhaust. But sometimes I get bored and wonder what can I do to the car to make it more fun lol so I've been researching exhausts. Meisterchaft seems to attract me. I've had a borla before on my Volkswagen gti. Another option would be to keep stock exhaust, and add an after market downpipe. I've heard
That's the best "bang for your buck" mod. Thoughts? |

The Downpipes will increase your stock exhaust sound quite a bit and it could satisfy your ears while also giving you some performance gains. With downpipes I do recommend getting a flash tune to eliminate the CEL, increased performance, and remove be top speed limiter. If tune is not an option, JB4 would be my second option.

I just put the AWE Tuning Performance Exhaust (axel back) on Monday. Its not obnoxiously loud. No drone at cruising speeds, but when when you get on the gas, it sounds pretty sweet. As others will tell you, once you disable the Active Sound, you'll realize how quiet the interior is because of the sound dampening. I haven't hear any others in person but I'm sure they all sound pretty good. The issue is that everything for this car comes with a nice "M Tax" so I tried not to go nuts for better sound because I really don't need more power...

I went with DP's, stock resonators, and Eisenmann Sport. I haven't gotten around to installing them, but when I do I will post a video.
I currently have Turner muffler delete with everything else stock. I'm really satisfied with the tone and volume, but I wanted to go downpipes and those would be too loud for the Turners |

I have to say, if you didn't tell me the sound was fake, I'd never know. Now my cabin is quiet and what I hear is the real sound of the exhaust when I get on the gas, but I wish what I heard in the cabin with Active Sound was real sound. Maybe another exhaust or DP's would give me that sound on the inside, but it's definitely a well insulated cabin in terms of outside noise... |

Is it possible to purchase just the rear section of that? From the last set of clamps back? I'm pondering a delete of the mufflers, but adding resonators.

Keep in mind the Fabspeed inner pipe will get the most flow and turn black much, much faster than the outer pipe. This unfortunately makes it look like you just have 2 pipes from the back of the car, as the outers will be shiny inside while the inners are black. Poor design IMO.
