Exhaust questions...HELP =)

So I have been pondering some questions about exhaust for my 2014 M6 GC.

I know a lot of people have been using Akropovic on their new M6's but with my other 2007 M6 I used Meisterschaft cans, secondary cat delete with x-pipe. The sound was amazing and I have not heard a better exhaust on any other e63.

Currently I have the option to have a custom build full exhaust system from Borla for next to nothing. Turner motorsports uses on all their cars and I have seen some great results on their M3's in the past.
Do you guys have any opinions about whether it would be better to use the Meisterschaft system over Akropovic or even Borla???

Lastly, I know this sounds nuts but would it even be remotely possible to use my Meisterschaft system from my e63 and try it out on my new M6??
I know they are two totally different engines but would the back pressure make that much of a difference? Would I lose HP?

Thanks guys.

Older M6 had 10 cylinders, the sound was super car level nice.
If you don't care about the drone and you want your exhaust to be extremely loud, go with Meisterschaft (very fair price).
Akrapovic gives more hp and weight reduction than any other M6 exhaust, it is loud but not as loud as Meisterschaft for sure; no drone at all. (a bit pricey, but worth getting).

Here is my exhaust (I have a few vids on it).


I really like Manhart's exhaust actually! Check it out.

Thanks for the reply. I guess it really didn't answer my question. I am not an exhaust specialist so my question was would the cans from my e63 M6 be compatible with my new M6? I am aware they are two totally different engines and I am very aware of the exhaust note that they gave off...in fact I loved it.

I just don't know if they would be compatible.
I have a custom exhaust being built currently by one of the companies that currently provides systems to the DTM group and a few other circuit teams in Ti with some improvements to the tube sizing especially around the kink points near the front of the car where they normally pinch but I guess all in all my curiosity got the best of me.

The E63 M6 exhaust will not work on the new M6. The cost for a muffler shop to make it work would be more than buying a new exhaust setup.
