Hey guys so I'm fairly new to this forum because I recently purchased my car and I already want to put in a new exhaust. I have maintenence for another 6 months and warranty till 2017. Will BMW be anal about me getting an Eisenmann exhaust on the car? I don't want to settle for the BMW PE or Dinan because quite frankly their too tamed for my taste. Feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

All Bmw dealers are different , that being said .Unless the exhaust damages anything on the car and they can prove it then they won't fix it, other than that it should be fine.

Thanks for the quick reply. Haha I like your username btw! Do you have the exhaust by any chance?

Your welcome! I do have an exhaust but it's AA signature , it sounds great but not too honda civic.

Your warranty is not going to be voided by a catback exhaust. That being said, things like exhausts and aftermarket wheels are dead giveaways that other parts of the car have been modified. I would suggest that if you plan to put a tune on the car, keep the rest of it as stock looking, sounding, etc as humanly possible.

That's a relief, I plan on going with a Dinan tune anyway so I think the coast is clear. Thank you!

PE tame???

You're the first one saying that!

PS Eisenmann are sh*t on a N55... Try "searching" the board...

Hey bud, you might want to watch some youtube videos on the BMW performance exhaust and the eisenman race on an N55 "I quote make sure it's an N55 engine! It does make a difference in exhaust note". Not saying eisenman is bad, but BMW performance is just as good "In my opinion better" for 1000 dollars less. Do some more research. Just because Eisenmann has a strong name in the BMW community, doesn't mean it's the best.

They are really good, but not with the N55 ... (same for N54)

I have to agree with this. I have the N55 BMW PE with catless downpipe, and my car is more aggresive and refined than most of my fellow 335i friends.
Trust me. It growls and snarls. The Eisenmann on the N55 is meh, plus it's a grand more in cash none of us spend.
Come to think of it, I think most of the N55 guys on the forums use PE and I don't recall too many with the Eisenmann...

All dealers are different. Mine let's you do whatever you want as long as it doesn't cause any issues.

Here is my PE:

[shadow191]

I have an Eisenmann on my N54 and it has a very aggressive sound. Not sure how it compares to PE though since I've never put them both side by side. I have heard that they reduced the tone on newer ones, so who knows.

N54 and N55 have two completely different tones. Almost sound like two different cars.

N54 Eisenmann sounds better than N55 though.

I wanted a BMW PE at first until I heard the mann but now I am reconsidering. I'm really glad I made an account because I love all this feedback. Thanks everyone for their input and if I get the PE with AR Design downpipes will it sound deep and aggressive? I have a N55 engine btw.

It will be very loud. But I reckon it is very subjective. I have catless DP + PE I love the tone initially, but as a daily drive I found it is too loud for me and the smell is intolerable. Then I swap to N54 midpipe (with two cats). I think if you got any chance to hear in person then you can make your own mind.

[mashimarho]

Deep? Hell yes. Aggressive? Probably a monster living in my pipes.

Here's a few vids of mine. VIDEO DOES NOT DO JUSTICE

You guys were so right, lol. Here I am, 7 years later with a PE mod. No regrets!
