Which is louder? (Exhaust)
Hi I have been visiting this website for about 2 years now and just became a member now. Anyway I own a 2007 bmw 328i sedan (MT). I was just wondering, which exhaust is louder for my car? BMW PE? or Eisenmann race Exhaust (muffler)?

the BMW PE is pretty quiet with the windows rolled up. Even with the front windows rolled down you can barely hear it. Once you roll down the front AND back windows. Well. That's a different story. But if u're going to be driving with windows up most of the time, you will barely notice the PE

I would do the MMW CS or bmw pe with a res delete, 2nd cat delete. and call it a day. you dont want to be so loud you cant hear yourself think. or be obnoxious towards other people haha.
unless you do a muffler delete and a res delete ours cars dont get that loud.

Thank you all for the replies. All of you guys are really helpful. It looks like I'm going to go with the Eisenmann Exhaust. But I don't want it to be too loud, so I'm not going to delete the resonator.

if u want to keep price in mind, for eisenmann it costs ~1000 just for just the muffler whereas the bmw pe costs ~950 for the whole system muffler+midpipes. I currently have the bmw pe with 2ndary cat delete and it's the perfect tone for me. Both sound great but I didn't feel like paying that much for just a muffler, but you can't go wrong with eaither.
