Catback exhaust for 335i coupè: what's the best value for the money on the market?

Andras · 09-06-2008, 08:52 AM

Hello guys,
as a proud owner of a 335i E92 I am kindly asking you some advices regarding catback exhaust.
I already installed RR downpipes, now it's about time to get the job complete.
As a keen buyer I am interested in the best product on the market for its money, loudness is not a problem (it's a plus) so once again I am eager to know your opinion about what's the best choice to be done for the money spent.
Thanks in advance to anybody answering me

Ciao

thanks for the answer, what about its cost?

jpsimon · 09-06-2008, 02:41 PM

The autobahn exotic exhaust is easily the best exhaust in terms of quality, sound and price

i think that it $1149 not sure check in the sponsors threads

gimp2x · 09-06-2008, 04:33 PM

stock exhaust is a great value, nobody has seem gains from aftermarket exhausts that are worthy of the pricetag

thegeneral101 · 09-06-2008, 04:45 PM

Magnaflow

not going to look up prices for you...google it and youtube the videos for sound clips yourself. if you found this site, you can find those things

Hey, I have been looking at different exhausts ie Dinan, BMW performance. I really like autobahn exhaust but worried about warranty. Will this void the warranty?

Yes, that's the cost, thanks again.
Would you recommend the resonated one or the non-resonated one? And why?

Thanks!

e.n335 · 09-07-2008, 02:03 AM

The resonated version will decrease the sound, less loudness, so nothing for you

Go with non-resonated less restriction more power.

BuLoOoSki · 09-07-2008, 03:23 AM

I'd say the rennart as well. its priced nicely and built with good quality as well. the sound is great with the non resonated version.
you can check out the sound clip that i made in this thread

dealers really don't have a problem with catback exhausts, just things like intake/tune/DPs

uhhhhhh

the dealer voided my warrant for a magnaflow muffler when my turbos failed... they claim it reduced the back pressure and over spun the turbos...

they must not have liked you thats all I can think. i have spoken personally to 3 owners of BMW dealers about catback exhaust and none of them had problems with it. but like everything, it varies from place to place and person to person. Sorry to hear about that though, pretty shitty

Believe me I have searched thoroughly and really no specific answer.

Andras · 09-07-2008, 08:49 AM

A quick one: between AE (not necessary catted) and a not resonated Rennart, which would be your choice guys?
By the videos I took a look at AE seems to have the most powerful sound (and no "X")

Thanks!

ZJP · 09-07-2008, 04:14 PM

Buy the ASR catback and post up a video.

hun77777 · 09-07-2008, 04:21 PM

If I'd want BEST PERFORMANCE EXHAUST, not considering anything else, I'd cut the end section of DP and make FULL 3"+ custom piping weld it on to it, which will yield the best gain possible...
