some vids and sound bites of a 540i with exhausts (not for the faint of heart) - United Bimmer Community

I stumbled upon this website. These 540s sound awesome and some are automatics.

Listen to all of the exhausts and let me know what you guys like.

I have a Remus exhaust currently and it sounds throaty starting from 3500 RPMs. I have comtemplated removing the resonator or converting to a M5 exhaust system.

i'm quite surprised BMWLotattendant didn't. he loves the beautiful 540i. with good reason, those clips sound mean.

You know, I think I have been underestimating the non-M e39.

For some reason you don't see many e39 vids posted online. But some of those cars were pretty bEaStly. Those big V8's rev much quicker than I had thought and deliver more than enough torque to light up the tires. That's more than I can say for a stock, non-M e36.

Here's what I thought:
1) Quad Remus w/ Res Delete
2) Standard Remus
3) Dinan w/ Dynomax Res

sweet sound to my ears after a long day at work. nice vids

I am glad you guys are appreciating the 540i

. I have been attempting to find an exhaust that is beast like, yet refined.

I have a Remus exhaust now, but I have stock cats and the resonator. Of those vids, which exhaust did you like the most. I am seeking some opinions.

My car is quiet at idle and I would like to keep it that way.

I like the quad remus on the 540i. I think in order to do that, I would need to buy a M5 trunk and have a body shop modify my trunk, then pick up a x-pipe and another Remus exhaust and delete the resoator. A fun project.

I wonder if any of those cars had s/c or headers or some other mods.

The one with the burnout reminds me when I humm... went on a drive with my mom's old 540 one day...

**dinan540** · 05-04-2006, 12:51 AM

Rooz, which 540i exhaust did you like? That burnout was the guys wife in an automatic.

Storamin · 05-04-2006, 09:21 AM

hahaaha.

UUC doesn't make a 5 exhaust, do they?

**dinan540** · 05-04-2006, 02:02 PM

uuc doesn't make many aftermarket parts for the 5. If you own a 5, www.beastpower.com is a great aftermarket website. They carry most of the exhausts, exterior, etc for the 5. They have videos and sound clips too.
