"a proper exhaust"? you guys crack me up. That doesn't mean jack. are there 4 exhaust pipes all the way to the six cylinders (which doesn't make sense either)? Every exhaust is a joke on modern cars. The M2 has one turbo outlet, so you really only need one pipe properly sized. heck on my race car, I only have two tips, one per each 4cyl bank, which require only 2 1/4" for enough flow for its 4 liters and 7000 RPM. 4 tips is pure marketing - so is two in the Audi case. Size and tip count sells, so that's what they give you. From an engineering standpoint, the Audi 5 is much more robust than the BMW 6 (shorter, stiffer crank & cams thus less twist/flex) with more performance overhead/$ and HP/CC. I love the BMW stuff, but mocking the Audi just makes it look like you guys are insecure about what you bought
