MP exhaust vs dinan exhaust

I can't really tell by listening to the video clips, so for those who've heard both these exhausts.... which one sounds more aggressive? just wondering if dinan worth the premium...

It did sound more aggressive especially when you put it into the sport or sport +. You can definitely hear the difference.

ok. all the videos on YouTube sound pretty similar. I mean with a good set of headphones, even the stock sounds good. looking for something that I can hear and appreciate in cabin with windows up. stock is just way to quiet.

Do you really feel that stock is just way too quiet in sport or sport plus? Just like you, I am wondering if Dinan exhaust is worth it or just go MP Exhaust. I still have to ask around what's legal in California when it comes to other exhaust mods.

I think so. my previous car was a Boxster and that car sounded incredible. I'm looking for more growl... even in sport plus. dinan is usually pretty conservative, just don't know what's more conservative, bmw or dinan.

Did you ever get an answer to your question? I am thinking of either getting an MPE or Dinan Exhaust.

One difference is that Dinan claims 6 hp gain while the MPE has zero.

With them both being just the rear muffler I would assume if they offered any extra performance, it would be the same for them both.
