Hello to all,

I drive a 2010 BMW E92 320i (VIN - WBAKD52030E492434 and Engine No. - N46B20B). I drive in the city. I am looking to upgrade my exhaust system. I am looking for something that is not too loud (because too loud and aggressive exhaust are not legal in my country) but at the same time has a sweet note and is compatible with my car. My first choice is single exhaust with twin tailpipes to the left. My second choice is twin exhaust with single tailpipes to both left and right like the E92 335i.

Can anyone please suggest and provide links to where I can purchase quality exhaust online ? They should also be able to ship it overseas. Would appreciate your help.

Regards
Dewan.

I have an Eisenmann on my Z3M. Love the sound.

I guess the classic choice would be the BMW performance exhaust. It isn't too loud and has a nice sound

If you are looking for more of a sporty and louder sound then sports exhausts should serve you right, for example Eisenmann or REMUS

I don't know how the laws are where you live but if you look for exhausts which are legal in countries like Germany you should be fine.

I am interested in the BMW performance exhaust then. Can you please provide the link where to purchase it from online ? Would really appreciate your help.

Is Eisenmann too loud ? I drive in city. Not interested in something too loud or dull at the same time. If have any videos of your exhaust note please do share

You can just look up "BMW 320i e92 Eisenmann/REMUS/etc" on YouTube, there are quite a few videos on exhausts.
In general sports exhausts are trying to go for a sportier and louder sound but the legal exhausts try to stay at the same dB level to be legal (in the country I live in at least).

If you are looking into a more expensive setup you could look at valved exhausts. I don't know the laws where you live but with a valved exhaust you could switch from an OEM sound to a sporty sound.
You could be have the same sound as stock and when you hit the switch when you hit the backroads.

The PE is a legal exhaust and will be around 77dB but some others like Eisenmann should also hover around 77-80dB.

I can only show you German Google results, you can just look up "BMW 320i e92 performance exhaust" and compare some shops.

I looked up the laws in Bangladesh and according to http://bdlaws.minlaw.gov.bd/act-1262/section-47892.html

Translated by Google:
(3) Length, width, height, seating arrangement, wheel base, rear over hang, front over hang, side over hang, shape, nature and condition of wheels, brakes and steering of any motor vehicle, notwithstanding the technical specification prescribed by the authority. Gears, horns, safety glasses, signaling lights and reflectors, speed governors, smoke emission systems and carbon emissions, noise control levels or similar shall not be altered.

(4) In case of any technical, internal or external modification of the registered motor vehicle, approval shall be obtained from the authority in the prescribed manner.

In Germany, we are not allowed to change emissions or noise levels either. The BMW PE, Eisenmann, REMUS, etc are still legal in Germany since they have the same or similar dB level but in your case you should try to ask. The fines in your country are really high...

Many thanks for your help mate. The fact that you have also consulted our law is more than I can ask for. I would like to bother you with two more questions :-
1. Can you please provide the part number of the BMW Performance Exhaust for E92 320i ? Or link is also fine.
2. What is the decibel of the exhaust in stock form (i mean the factory exhaust provided with the car) ?
Would really appreciate your help

1. BMW PE: 18302165670

2. I'd wager that you guys get the same exhausts as us in Germany so that'd be 77 dB(A) at around 60% of max RPM, I guess. (N46)
I don't have access to a 320i and found 77dB on the internet but I couldn't find the RPM. For my 335i it is 88dB at 4250RPM that is around 60% of redline.

If possible you should try to ask someone from your area, maybe a mechanic/tuning shop or whoever does car inspections whether the PE is allowed, I can't give legal advice. But the exhaust should not be significantly louder than OEM so I'd guess it's fine.

I have made up my mind that I will get the PE exhaust. Really appreciate your help. Many thanks for your time mate..

Good choice, get it while you can!

The N52 PE has been discontinued and highly coveted for years.
