Has anyone heard both in person?

This seems to be the currently most active Z4 E85/6 forum. Zpost used to be pretty active, kind of a ghost town over there.
Wondering if anyone has heard both the stock euro Z4M and a stock US spec Z4M to compare what they sound like, exhaust wise?
I have a US Z4M with only Arqray mufflers for exhaust mods. The Arqrays are pretty mild, only a touch louder than OE as I recall (they've been on for 10+ years) and a deeper, fuller sound character. No drone or any negative effects.
Anyone have an educated guess as to how this might change if I slap on the euro headers? What I can expect?
I also need to do something with the 2 post cat O2 and EGT sensors. I thought about looking for another section 1 to have one OE and one to modify with appropriately placed bungs for these, but then I am probably going to do an ECU tune, so I gather I can just have these ignored with the tune.
Well, thanks for any insight you may have.
