+1 nothing says LOUD like eisenmann
p.s. I was selling mine for 1100 but heard all other exhaust in person i.e. vanguard, remus etc and changed my mind ... drone bothers me sometimes but nothing some loud music cant solve haha only thing that will make me change the exhaust is when I decide to get dp's

Remus Race - have not heard in person, but heard it is deep, but not very loud (a secondary cat delete or downpipes could change this since it's only a muffler) Bastuck - I think the "exotic" part of this exhaust is overhyped. The youtube video with the camera right by the tips makes it sounds unreal and amazing, but look at any other video and it just sounds "ok" Vanguard - Pretty loud, can be converted to quads, has a very deeeep sound Eisenman - Has a deep sound down low, and a very exotic scream up top, drones a lot, but is the loudest option other than HPF, a LOT of them go on sale for $900-1200 on the classifieds section.

I have the harmon motive exhaust(old vishnu exhaust) + catless downpipes and it is definitely loud, but it does not come in quads. you should check that out.
also, I think people say the bastuck is "tame" because it is only replacing the muffler section. Im sure that when combined with some catless midpipes and catless downpipes, it will be plenty loud. From the clips I've heard it seems like one of the best sounding + loud. another one worth mentioning is the AMS exhaust. I'm not sure how loud it is in person but from the clips it seems pretty loud. + it is the lightest exhaust as far as I know, since it has just one pipe running down.

Not sure why people are saying AE is overhyped, people buy it for a reason....it's good! It is one of the best performing exhaust made for the N54, in terms of hp gains and weight savings. Yes it's probably the most tame sounding exhausts made, but my mature ears prefer it that way. One doesn't need a loud booming exhaust screaming "here I am....please look at me" to enjoy their car and aftermarket mods. Just my $0.02, but 15-20 years ago I probably would have went for the louder pipes too.

If they had Vanguard quads i would love to try that though. I need to hear vanguard in person! I would never buy an exhaust that is only axle back also. As for gain the HP figures are so minimal I would not base my decision on that.

I had AMS before and it was loud really loud, AE great quality, good finish but I did not like it sound wise. I also heard HKS is really nice.

im running vanguard + AR DP's and it's loud as hell, which i love. I've contacted vanguard before trying to see if they would release some quad tips because that would make my setup that much better, however they were reluctant to give me a good details and said they would keep me posted.

In terms of HP, the power comes from the cat deletes not really from the piping so it really doesn't make much of a difference. Also OP asked for loudest, deepest.... so the AE doesn't fit the bill at all. Take for example the PE... isn't the loudest/deepest, but if you hear it in person it sounds so much more refined and engineered in comparison to the AE. Quote:
Out of all the exhausts I heard at the meet (including stock) I would recommend AE last.

i have heard all three in person and the youtube videos do not represent any of them accurately if i had to sum them up in an adjective: vanguard generic, eisenmann thunderous, and bastuck symphonious |

Although you can get an idea of the general tone, there's just too many other factors which can alter how an exhaust sounds on video. I would do any of these 3 options: 1) Eisenman Race, with either downpipes or a second cat delete... total beast (if you can handle drone) 2) Vanguard if you want a really deep and beastly sound (very minor drone) 3) BMW PE completely catless with resonators - if you don't mind being completely catless and want a higher pitched scream (VERY quite in cabin, LOUD outside)
