Exhaust options?

[avi8tir]

What aftermarket options are available for the X5 M?

[Alberta]

I was waiting for the AKRA , but I had really enough waiting ... so I have installed the Manhart muffler.
I love it , sound's really good.

I am still waiting for them . If it will not sound good, Manhart for me also.

Other available exhausts:
- Eisenmann
- GT Haus
- Hamann
- SC Schnitzer
- G Power

I was interested by the Eisenmann muffler as well.
They need 3 weeks just to produce it ... I just didn't want to wait any more.
Manhart garage is less than 3 hours from my house , they had the exhaust in their stock so everything went fast

From all the available exhaust systems, the Manhart sounds the best. Still waiting for Akeapovic. In Spring i will visit Manhart for their 800hp package

It isn't 800 , but 700 HP
I saw their X5M MH700 , but couldn't test drive it because it had no lights in the back ...
It must be a real beast , personally I'm already very satisfied with the 575 HP , for time being

They have the 750hp package which has downpipes with cats, and 800hp for the catless downpipes.
Trust me i've spoken with them and seen the dyno sheets

[Alberta]

Well , my bad , I thought I was "only" 700 HP

Probably they wrote 700 because they don't like to brag about it. Many tuners write Xhp packages and in reality they are well under that figure.
Manhart wrote 700 when in reality they have more over that

[Alberta]

I do remember now that one of the guys at Manhart said with downpipes it get's around 730-750 HP , bit still call it MH700.
It's cool to have more power than expected

Probably their 700hp package is obtained only from complete exhaust and software. For more power they said turbochargers and injectors are upgraded also

What is your source ?
I'm checking often on their website and had sent them a few emails and they still don't have any option for F85/F86.

You sir made my day happier

[Alberta]

Not mine ahah !
If I had known that before , I would be waiting for the Akra

If you are patient, Megan Racing is working on an exhaust for our cars. Based on historical pricing, it should be less than $650.

If Fabspeed Motorsport build the SuperCup Exhaust for our cars (like they did with last gen X5M/X6M), I would be interested as well for a sub $2k option.

I'll be honest, our OEM exhaust sounds really good from the outside. It's just the look of it that makes me want to look for aftermarket options. Slightly more volume is appreciated as well.

Call me crazy, but I'm not paying $4,500 for a muffler (axle back) that are currently available.

Im 100% with you here. I can't justify the cost especially since the x5m really doesn't sound bad out of the box. on my f80, I really didn't like the stock sound, and ended buying an expensive cat back, and while I like the sound more, I still kick myself for what it cost. the megan option sounds interesting, or at some point I may just alter the look of the stock unit.
