Early birthday present

markjord · 05-23-2011, 03:07 PM

Eisenmann Race finally arrived after a 5 week wait. Going to my local tyre / exhaust place tomorrow to get it fitted (along with some new rear tyres).

Any tips / anything to watch for when fitting this?

congrats! That thing is LOUD!

Dunno. The car goes fast enough for an old gimmer like me. Just needs to be LOUDER.

Well, it certainly will be that's for sure

RON1X · 05-24-2011, 06:19 AM

awesome! I really want this exhaust, but didn't know about the [semi-long] wait...i'm very impatient

If I may ask, which pipes did you get to go with it?

Stormtroooper · 05-24-2011, 06:27 AM

very nice! Now get it on your car and post a vid!

It's being fitted rigt now. Very nervous that something will go wrong as per my usual luck. I've bought Eisenmann's connecting pipes - that's all.

IMG · 05-24-2011, 08:00 AM

Hey markjord, all is gonna b fine !! post some videos plz!!!
Good Luck !!!!

markjord · 05-24-2011, 10:05 AM

Yep - all is good and they didn't mark my rims changing the tyres like some places do.

The Eisenmann looks so much better than the standard exhaust. At work now so will post vids tomorrow. With the comments above I was wondering if it might be a bit too loud. Actually, it's not as loud as I expected, maybe that's not a bad thing though as it will be a DD for the summer as my daughter grabs her car back off me.

John Tanglewood · 05-24-2011, 11:27 AM

Looking for impressions. I am in the market for a used one right now.

Moxie · 05-24-2011, 11:39 AM

I put on my sport ~ a month ago. I'm already thinking of getting the race. It's easy enough to change out. Did your pipes come with a heat shield?

markjord · 05-25-2011, 04:21 AM

Umm not sure about the heat shield. They had some kind of white material around them. I never actually unwrapped though as they looked pretty uninteresting. The hanger and the earth straps were broken on the old exhaust. Liking my Eisenmann. I need to hear it from outside the car now. I'm told it sounds fantastic when I'm pulling away. Will vid as soon as I get a chance.

Kyoshi71 · 05-25-2011, 06:00 AM

That thing is going to be sweet

markjord · 05-25-2011, 01:46 PM

Couple of initial vids:

Hearing your cars exhaust will be an eye, or more correctly, an ear opening experience! You'll likely be amazed and at the same time disappointed in that you can't hear what the audience hears when you are in the drivers seat.

The white fabric clamped on the pipes is the heat shield. I had a Thermo Tec heat shield ready to be put on but was pleasantly surprised to see they came with one already. Not sure what I'm gonna do with the Thermo tec.

Paid top dollar for it as I'm overseas & the vendors that ship USPS rape you on costs.

Maybe put it on over the other shield. If one is good, then two's gotta be better
