Hey Guys,

Does anyone have an exhaust on their 535i? If so, which exhaust and how loud is it? I'm particularly interested in the Dinan exhaust with their stage 2 package. I'm looking for a nicer exhaust sound, but I hate loud ones. Does anyone have a video or audio file of their exhaust?

I have a Remus quad exhaust. Have a listen to the atatched clip. It is oof of their website and from a 550. I have a 535 but it sounds roughly the same.

AllI can say is that I had your exact same worries. I wanted a more throaty sound but did not want to be heard coming from a mile away. My exhaust is louder than stock but just a touch. You cannot hear it hardly at all inside the cabin. It is a very classy sound.

Anyway, I love it.

I have a Billy Boat on the my 545.

Stock install it has a good low sound and you can barely hear it inside the cabin.

I like loud. So, I replaced the y-resonator with a straight y-pipe and it got much louder - inside and out. See the video links in my sig for example.

I think any of the popular ones out their today are going to be good for you in a normal install. The more you change in front of the tail pipe / mufflers the louder it will get.
