Great guys thanks for the feedback!! This and AE are on the top of my list!

The Bimmerworld/HKS set up got some good press from Grassroots Motorsports and looks like a really nice set up. I personally have the AE and it was a long process to come to a decision. I am very happy with the purchase, though I think it would have been a tougher choice if the BW/HKS (non blue tips) was out when I made my purchase. For me it had to be a complete system and bolt on. No cutting or muffler only. And had to be civil as I roll with two carseats occupied by young kids 99% of the time.

From the exhausts available currently, I would have to say your best bet is AE.

Ya thanks guys i am for sure considering AE as one of the top on my list.. thanks for the feedback!!

jpsimon · 07-23-2009, 01:06 PM

Nothing beats the AE in terms of the overall package you get. It makes as much power as any other exhaust, doesn't drone at all, uses actual flanges (no shitty slip-joints), etc etc the list goes on.

It is civil when you need it to be, and an animal when you want it to be.™

jpsimon · 07-23-2009, 01:09 PM

mihailo, just sent you a PM

Great to hear its very important that you guys metioned being civiled when needed and be an animal when you want it to be becasue that is what i am exactly looking for with the exhaust i get i dont want it to be crazy all of the time.. Thanks guys!!!

I was also in the market for a exhaust system. I just pulled the trigger and ordered the AE exhaust, it will be delivered to my house monday, and hopefully install it right away.. I'll report back if you havent decided by then!

TXSurfer · 07-23-2009, 09:50 PM

We have the AE Performance catback on our Alpha test car and it has been great thus far.

You can see our car in this video with the AE Performance exhaust:

To me it isn't an "exhaust system" unless it connects directly to the downpipes. AE, HKS, AMS are some examples. To match up with these you really have to add mid-pipes to many of these axle-back exhausts or atleast some sort of cat-delete (or high flows in Kalifornia) such as a BMW Performance 1/2 exhaust :P

Out of curiosity, how much does the AE exhaust go for these days??

jpsimon · 07-27-2009, 09:28 AM

I'm not sure what the current pricing is, PM nick@aeperformance.com for that info

phattbam · 07-27-2009, 09:34 AM

AE still loving it since day 1.

Endless Details · 07-27-2009, 11:41 AM

Looking to get the AE exhaust...is it all bolt up and no cutting of the stock exhaust? Would be going on a lease 335xi coupe
