Best exhaust: Dinan, Eisenmann or Meisterschaft for F12?

M3kay · 07-05-2015, 01:31 PM

I would like to buy an aftermarket exhaust system for my F12.
I have shortlisted my preference to Dinan, Meisterschaft and Eisenmann. Could anyone suggest me the pros and cons of each brand?

Many thanks!

Not many pros or cons, just all preference. Of the 3 listed, I would say Meisterschaft has the loudest and deepest growl. Paired to downpipes, the exhaust is absolutely nuts!

Here's a couple clips:

This was not an option you presented. However, I've owned both the Meisterschaft and the Eisenmann Race. I'm now running the RPi GTM and absolutely LOVE IT!

It's all about personal preference. I've had the Meisterschaft and Eisennmann Race on my car and I kept the Eisennman Race. It has more of an F1/Exotic sound to it that I prefer over the deep sound of the Meisterschaft. I think the Eisennman Race is louder than the Meisterschaft and so did the guys at the BMW dealership when I had it on my car. All in all it really does come down to personal preference.

Brian ... What you think Re the akra evolution with the supersprint down pipes ???

Got the supersprints today ... Nice turbo spool and yet very quite under 2500 rpm ... Should I consider more?

I had the eisenmann race and switched to sport for my 2007 M6 cab as the race irritated my ears ... Yeah .... Dentist getting older has ear aches with the drone!!! Sucks

!!! But along with the gray comes nice cars!!!

Thanks bro!!!

I've never heard the Akra in person but from what I have read the sound is beautiful. I didn't explore the Akra as an option because I like my exhaust loud as hell and from the feedback I received Akra isn't one of the louder exhaust options.

E race definitely is more exotic sounding

I just recently installed the FI Exhaust. Number 002! (if the serial number on my mufflers is accurate)

Its amazing. Youll wait forever for it unless you pay the 500 bux to have it air freighted in but its worth it. Its a great tone and loud from outside the car. The quality is in my opinion better than meistershaft and its guaranteed to be different than any other m6.

I havent posted pics or video yet because i am still awaiting my HRE's but here is a couple of pics for now Tips are Chrome Black.

supremepower · 07-09-2015, 11:46 PM

Nice. The FI system is an excellent choice

I love all their tip options lol

Why no mention of the M Performance exhaust? Is it really necessary to replace the whole exhaust system to get a better sound? Aren't there any cheaper ways to do this, like simply getting a replacement muffler?

There are many alternatives like the Fabspeed Muffler By-Pass (Muffler Delete) or the Turner Muffler Delete, both are excellent options that provide a increase in sound.

Drone does occur with both of the listed options at around 2-2.5k rpm.

I did the supersprint down pipes on my 2016 m6 cab .... Still to high pitch! Although the turbo spool noise is intoxicating!!! I ordered the akrapovic evolution as I missed the eisenmann sport for
My 2007 M6 cab with V10 with deep baritone

The stock exhaust M6 is lacking ... Emasculating!

Add supersprint down pipes is awsome but the high pitch Tone killed my ears ... I know, dentist ... Cry me a river ... But listening to high pitch for
High speed hand piece And suction all day, add BMW M exhaust and upgrade with down pipes ... My ears hurt at end of day.

Too bad as the car cost 170k

No issue with exhaust of 2015 S63 AMG ...

Just saying

Akra Evo with CF tips arrives this Wednesday and install planned for Friday

I'll let you all know how it sounds ... recording sound clips will likely not do it justice though!

Getting excited!

vladberca · 07-20-2015, 02:48 PM

Very good choice!
Share pics and clips once you have them installed

Ryan@IND · 07-21-2015, 03:26 PM

Most are familiar with the Eisenmann race for the S63tu, but another nice option is the Eisenmann sport with non-resonated connecting pipe. This provides a bolt-on solution with a nice exhaust tone and no drone. The sound starts at about 1:30
