Exhaust for 4.8 e70

Was getting the mod itch with the car and was thinking of getting a new exhaust, thinking between Remus or Supersprint anyone have experience with either for the 4.8?

I don't have experience with either of them, but if you want the v8 grunt for a much cheaper price, just go for the muffler delete. You will not regret it!

I followed this post and the sound of the car is just beautiful. Cold start is such a joy to listen to in the morning.

Good luck!

Ended up getting a good deal on a remus exhaust, (item hasnt shipped yet, but will do videos when i get it)

Other plans, maybe light weight rims (rohana rf1/2?) other than that not too much can be done on the n62 (Active Autowerke? ~$450 but might not be worth the money)

Power mods for the f15 50i are more "cost effective" but I prefer the steering feel/drive on the e70 4.8 and since i plan to keep it forever I don't mind little mods here and there. (i shouldve done headers when I had the engine out for major servicing but who knows maybe later on)

Remus is great and congrats on your purchase! Rohana's are pretty hefty in price, unless you don't mind spoiling her

Power mods not so much, the most I've seen on these cars is a pro charger kit from G power... But the power to dollar ratio on that is simply not convincing.

I think "beauty" mods are your best bet along with the exhaust. Lowering springs, new rims, and maybe a paddle shifters if you don't have those.

Happy mod-ing!

I like the remus, no drone behaves like stock, but when you step on it its louder, and a better tone imo. also at ~26 lbs its lighter than stock.https://vimeo.com/349534145
