Just listen to a F10 550i and a F10 M5 with similar Meisterschaft exhausts.
And the similarity between the S55 and F430 is of no relevance to the flat plane vs cross plane V8. Neither the S55 nor the F430 has an uneven firing order creating the pulsation in one exhaust manifold at a time. A flat plane crank V8 is the same firing order as two I4 engines, each bank acting as a I4 engine connected by a common crankshaft. A I6 is one inline engine with even distribution of firing sequences.
You can have a exhaust system that enhances the V8 warble, like one without a X or H tube. And you can have a exhaust system that tries to minimize it. A X or H tube is also preferred to enhance exhaust scavenging on a cross plane crank V8 to even out/balance the exhaust pressure problems that the uneven firing sequences create.

Dude what do you do for a living? You know so much about cars. Do you have your own car shop? Just curious that's all
