Advice on E39 540 aftermarket exhaust - Supersprint or Eisenmann?

Help, need to get rid of the single pipe on my e39 540i sport to make it a little more interesting. Having had the E34 M5 for the last four years the 540 is just too smooth and dare i say boring.I've decided on exhaust from either Eisenmann or Supersprint.Need to know what you guys think,any advice is greately appreciated.
BTW coming soon E34 M5 BRAND NEW 6 speed box.Never been fitted.

I would go eisanmann, but even more tempted to sell the 540 and get an M5 before you spend any money, you run the risk of improving lots at huge cost and still not making an M5 ?

Eisenmanns sound awesome on the M5 by the way

I have to agree with Carrera2RS, the 540 is a great car but before long you will be hankering for an M5, so why not bite the bullet and buy the ultimate e39 before you spend too much of your hard earned in mods.

Eisenmann all the way.

Thanks for the feedback. Eisenmann it is then. I'm already hankering for the M5, just waiting for the right one to come along.

FYI Eisenmann also do a four exit system (ala e39 M5) for the 540, and from what i've heard sounds superb in Race noise level.

Happy modding.

I´m also thinking about new exhaust but Eisenmann or Supersprint

When I drive slow the exhaust may be silens, but with alot of gas I wood like to hear it.
