RPI? Eisenmann? Remus?

OP (Jaw), whatever you decide, make sure you can live with it inside the cabin, especially if you have a coupe. A lot of these videos sound very good outside of the car, but it's not nearly the same behind the driver's seat.

I guess the target is to get an exhaust that's LOUD above 4krpm, sounds deep and throaty in lower RPM but doesn't drone on the motorway at 60-90 cruising - you wana drive on the motorway in luxurious silence to the alps and then hoon it around mountains making as much noise as you can!

Has anyone accomplished this? :D

The other important ingredient is not to lose the mechanical rasp of the S54 engine.
I have Remus back boxes and an aFe intake. Together they make the car sound awesome but it doesn't exceed noise restrictions at trackdays. There's a little drone around 2,000 (exhaust) and 4,000 (induction) rpm if cruising at these engine speeds but nothing intrusive. I've driven to and through the alps several times with this set up and loved every mile of it :evil:

I have them too on my MC. They do sound great, but sometime I wish those Remus could be a tad bit louder :evil:

A different intake will add volume and colour without being intrusive :thumbsup:

what he said :thumbsup:
I have a sports exhaust and a K&N, both sound great together!

If you would be going for a really loud exhaust though, you might consider a loud intake as well. Afe or something similar?
Makes me wonder... has anyone done it: loud exhaust + loud intake?
