Milltek for me - but that said theyre a bit too quiet for my liking AND it always annoys me how they never sit straight!!! I love the sound of the Eisennmans but they are not cheap. How about getting a hand made bespoke zorst - theyre a quite a few companies that do this and the prices are often a lot cheaper - you can design the tailpipes and the level of noise etc - worth a thought??

hayward and scott are a top company
had twin boxes on my old e39 m5 fantastic sound but woke the neighbours at six am when i left for work.
very well finished product
miltek great too had that as a special one off on the rs3 i had off kim collins at qst (audi tuners... sorry) (s3 running full rs4 running gear and engine approx 480 bhp)- cant see no 335 keeping up with that one (or m5,m6 dxb etc.....but didnt like corners @140mph!!!!!
tho miltek on my rangie 4.4 vogue made no diff in sound or performance just lost a load of cash on that one they even admitted it later..
hayward and scott much more bespoke and did it in a day
had quicksilver on my xk and supersports rr sport very good noise and performance but a bit more pricey (1k cat back)
stick with british if you can mate
h&s are in basildon essex and well worth a call used to do most of scoobysport stuff and evos too with good gains and you can tell em how loud you want it
good luck

Carlos, why are you interested in an exhaust for the 335i when you drive a 335d?

Oh, well, trust me, they do come with an exhaust from the factory.

Aren't you afraid your SP times are going to drop?
