e92 325i Exhaust Upgrade

Hi Guys,

Sorry for repeating myself but i think this 2 places are diffrent . I read other topics and this are my conclusions from all the previous users experience wich still leave me with many questions.


I Got E92 Model 325i 2006 year and ia m looking for an exhaust upgrade as the stock one is simply too quiet for such car and i read its not that easy with 325i model. I wanted to go for Bmw Perfomance Exhaust but from what i read on other topics its not possible to buy it from BMW as they dont support 325i engine size with it. I asked yesterday at BMW dealership and they told me they can only give me back box for 800 GBP about without centre pipes , what i understood its only the box so i would have to get pipes seperate?. I found this on Usa site , but not sure also if thats everything i need or just backbox.

But simply think there is no need to ordering it from Usa if sth might not fit or can cause any problems.

After more research i found this

http://www.eisenmann.co.uk/product/p...&Category2=210

Eisenmann Bmw exhaust wich looks like is ideal for my car, but it raise more questions. Here for 900 GBP i got back box with the pipes right ? I mean all that i need to replace the stock one and get good sound. It looks like its one thing (maybe in BMW they thought i would like to change everything) including that longer pipes that goes to the engine, but i doubt it as i read in other topics that its not possible to buy it at bmw for 325i.

My questions are :

1. Am i right to this point with what i wrote above ?

2. If i go with the Eisenmann and pick Race option instead of Sport one is it legal to drive on the streets with it or should i go with Sport instead ?

3. Would you recommend this Eisenmann exhaust if its the only good option here?

4.This could be stupid but is that back box from BMW same as the one from einsemann ? Or If i get only back box from bmw i would have to buy centre pipes or leave the stock ones connected with it ? If so i dont think with the old ones the sound would be as it should be right ?

I thought easier and better option is simply to make an upgrade to Bmw Perfomance Exhaust , but i think it cant be done without messing more under the car and with buying parts from USA.

Thanks in advance for this and future help

Just came back from BMW and ordered it quickly and simple. Will be done in 2 weeks as parts travel from Germany. Looks like i was reading wrong posts and there is no problem with it in UK at all

E92 doesn't have a resonator at least here in the US, so no midpipe. Eisenmann would be a grea option as well. I would recommend checking out YouTube videos and decide for yourself since these exhausts have their own "signature." But I don't think you could go wrong with either.
