Got my new exhaust!

Alignment of the tips is perfect!

Unlike the raspy M3, the roadster rumbles a lot deeper with the Eisenmann Race. Still typical Eisenmann quality, no drone at all. At WOT the noise is something else, especially with the top down!

Although this thread is not useless without pictures, it's useless without audio!!

Will it do much else for the car besides make it shout a bit more?

How much Nick?

Also is that just the two rear boxes? No X-pipe replacement?

From the pics of the cans side by side, there doesn't seem a lot of difference in the size of the silencer? Any ideas on weight? I know the two rear cans on mine are about 2/3 the size of the originals...

Be interesting to see how the two systems compare (my H&S custom, and the Eisenmann) since I couldn't find many people with aftermarket systems to see before I made my decision. Certainly looking and sounding better than stock though! :thumbsup:


*** edit - just found the prices on CA's site - £1080!!!! :o Please tell me that's for more than just the two rear cans alone!!

The video at the end of the post should now be working :)

Besides making it sound better, asthetically more pleasing, OK you save around 5kgs, what else do you want from just a pair of back boxes?

People who buy back boxes and expect XXXBHP gains still puzzle me :lol:
