If I plan to install a Challenge rear diffuser and the M Performance exhaust, let's say, would it be better to opt for the E92/93 version to ensure the exhaust sticks out a bit more to match the added length of the diffuser (so the exhaust doesn't look like it's hidden underneath the diffuser)???

Hey Scott,

The difference between the two versions is probably the length of the tips, just like the delta between the Eisenmann units:



I'm guessing the hangar locations and the length of the canisters and connecting pipes are the same between the E90 and E92. To that end, if you're putting on a diffuser and you don't want the tips to be hidden underneath it, you may want to to opt for the E92 exhaust. Either way, an experienced installer should be able to drill out the rivets on the tips and reattach them at an ideal length.

Someone with actual experience should chime in though...

Got this on Bimmerforums from Kevlar. There's a 20% discount on the exhaust and 50% discount on the install at some dealers. Unfortunately, not all dealers know about it.

Vista BMW in Coconut Creek FL. (Edit 3/7/11 ... Vista has confirmed the discount)
Braman BMW in Miami, FL. (Edit 3/7/11... Braman has confirmed the discount)
