    Yes, with that attitude, it may have been a waste of time.

    In all seriousness, this forum has a lot of good info, but with any Internet forum, you need to take everything with a grain of salt. Patience, Grasshopper.

    Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by hundreds of engineers that get paid thousands of dollars for something you bought at Pep Boys because your buddy who doesn't have a job told you it was 'better'?!?

    Buy one of each, put them all on, make YouTube video of all, listen to your own videos. It's the only way.

    That first suggestion is the best. We can't describe the sound. You need to hear it. Go on youtube and and look up "F30 exhaust". You will find plenty. The video usually says what the exhaust is. Once you find a sound or systems you like, then we can help.

    Yeah I don't think the youtube suggestion is out of line. Its really the only way to hear how the different exhausts sound unless you can find local owners with the exhaust you are considering already installed. I'd just look up your car model with "exhaust" in Youtube and listen to a bunch of clips until you find something you like.

    It you are looking for build opinions or performance gains or things that can be quantified rather than being personal preference, we could probably be more help...
