Just picked up a '13 M5 and looking at my first mod... As the title states, where do you think my money would be best spent between these two?

Personally, I'd go exhaust. The tune will be great too, but the car is already incredibly fast. You're go to appreciate the exhaust more, in my opinion.

Why limit yourself? Do both. I did the exhaust first but only because the tune wasn't available, as soon as it was, I bought the Stage 2 and the CAI. I like what all three have done to the car.

If I could only do one, it would be the exhaust since that makes a noticeable difference. The tune makes the car faster for the driver but the exhaust is like adding something that everyone else can notice and appreciate.

Tune... Power over sound for me. You could always crank up the active sounds =).

But if you have the fund you will enjoy them both.

I did the Dinan stage 1 software first it's the most important first mod I think... Added the Dinan mufflers 2 days ago just the right sound makes it deeper not raspier....
