i am currently in talks with Autobahn Exotics, who makes the sickest sounding quad exhaust for the e9x! they are on the verge of producing an exhaust system for the 535; and they wanted me to get a "pulse" of what everyone would be more interested in....

the question is, if they are to make an exhaust for the 535 - would you rather they make a 1)quad set up or 2) a single sided dual?!

here is some pix and sound clip on the e9x......

IMO, of you're going to mod your exhaust, do it all the way and right and go quads...
