Question Which axel back exhaust for X5 M?

I'm thinking Megan Racing, it's cheap and it looks good. But the most important it sounds nice. I only keep my cars for like 6-12 months and change so I'm not going to spend big bucks.

What do you guys think I should get?
Any experience with Megan Racing?

I believe quite a few X5/X6 folks have this axleback. Search in this and the X6 forums, and you'll find a lot of positive reviews.

Or there is the recent thread of the modified stocker, which is genius, and completely stealth.

If I was trying to do the exhaust on a budget, I think the modified OEM suitcase would be the way to go too.

I did a custom axle-back Magnaflow exhaust on my 50i, and like it, so you have that option as well.

Magnaflow has always been a great muffler to use in a universal application. Good mellow and not raspy sound. It's the muffler shops that can't weld worth a damn, that ruins it.

:-P
