Exhaust system upgrade...

crzylildude · 06-26-2013, 04:33 PM

Exhaust system upgrade + downpipes ...

what do you guys think of my choices...

jaykayelemenohpee · 06-26-2013, 04:34 PM

Why buy an exhaust worth 1/4th the price of your car?

Because I'm crazy

just like everybody else in here... no seriously i only want to get good shiny stuff to be bolted on to my car....

I really dont think the Akra sounds special on an n54, waste of serious $$$. Meisterschaft and Eisenmann are both superb options.

triggz · 06-26-2013, 04:50 PM

Go with eisenmann

By loud you mean amazing and by drony you mean what guys don't care about because we aren't women, then yes

Allaboutthehype · 06-26-2013, 05:00 PM

Sounds like you already made your mind up then lol. Why ask for opinions? Enjoy your Akrapovic!

lol! yea i did

I just need a downpipes to match it... I was looking at Macht Schnell / AA / AR ... they are all nice and smooth and shiny

Allaboutthehype · 06-26-2013, 05:10 PM

Very nice, you better post up some sound clips! and you seriously can't go wrong with any of those! if you want bragging rights though AR is the king.

Allaboutthehype · 06-26-2013, 05:11 PM

BTW Seen that you don't have a tune yet, make sure you get one when you do the downpipes or at least get a downpipe fix from BMS because if not you're going to have a nasty check engine light,

I promise that i will not tune my car but since i already passed my emission test... i might as well tune it

Allaboutthehype · 06-26-2013, 05:15 PM

That's the spirit! trust you will fall in love with your car like never before

lol

enrita · 06-26-2013, 05:48 PM

Drone,rasp only comes with catless downpipes and bad axleback or fully catless. Akra is a waste of money

crzylildude · 06-26-2013, 06:02 PM

Actually Akra Evo Stainless System is not that expensive now... i'm comparing prices and they are all not far from each other...

And in regards to the DPs... AR is much more expensive compare to Macht & AA...

EDM92 · 06-26-2013, 06:35 PM

Don't take opinions from people on the internet who haven't even heard any of those exhaust systems in person.

As for downpipes, they all do the same thing and no one is going to see them. No point in paying a ton of money for top notch quality pipes.

Where do you get off assuming that "people" haven't heard these exhausts in person? I've heard almost every aftermarket exhaust in person except for HPF and AA. Get your facts straight jr

Jeff@TopGearSolutions · 06-26-2013, 07:23 PM

I'll be on honest. I like Eisenemann and Akra for their own reasons as far as the "name brand loyalty" goes. They are quality but I gotta tell you I really like the way the VRSF sounds. (No sales pitch). That's a good buy for someone looking for a clean sounding exhaust for a fraction of the cost.

Thanks I'll take note of that... VRSF...
