Hello 520d owners

I thinking about change to a new exhaust for my new E61 520dAT (177hp). I want a nicer sound, so what exhaust do you want on an 520d? Do anyone have an sound file of a nice exhaust system? Eisenmann? 2 or 4 pipes, not sure jet.. I also thinking about fitting the Alpina D3 exhaust, but i can't find an sound file of it. Need help..

Thanks,
BMW-ALPINA

You risk to spend a lot of money and remain with an orrible sound: search for 'Hamann 535d' on YT and .. protect your ears

Can I suggest a remap, that doesn't change the sound but improves performance ?

What a horrible sound. Then i think i want the OEM exhaust.. How does the Alpina D3 hear..? Maybe this sound is better..

I will do an remap on the car, but i just want HARTGE or an "OEM" BMW tuner to keep the garanti. HARTGE is not finish with theirs remap for this engine. Hope they will be finish soon.

Do you know what i can expect from this engine in an remap?
