I loved my Eisenmann Race black series, however it did drone and for some reason my Eisenmann was much louder than all the rest I ever heard. Been in others cars with Eis Race and they were much more tame sounding. Been thinking of getting another. Syncd, if youre interested in something more tame and are going to sell/trade let me know.

Did you reuse the stock connecting pipes or bought eisenmann's? Wondering if it could make a difference. |

The small dip in the low end could be more noticeable the DCT which is not the smoothest at low speed to begin with. I see that you have a manual, and with the manual it might be less noticeable. |

Good to know, I might go that route down the road. I think I'll try a few more things with the race before giving up on it. The M3 is not my DD so I can tolerate the loudness while I try to figure this out.

I was completely shocked at how quiet I found the race in another friends car. Then again now I have a catless resonated x pipe so even with my more mild exhaust (bastuck) it trumps the eisenmann race in volume at any rpm and significantly more so up top..not to mention the power. My comparo was axel back vs axel back. Mine was significantly louder than the other eisenmann race I heard. So much so that the eisenmann race in a freind's car sounded very tame. |

As for the power or torque loss, you are imagining it. An axleback alone will not have a noticeable effect on power detectable via but dyno. I have had ten different exhaust setups in 14 months and I want to try the Eisenmann Race but I can't stand the ugly canisters. The connecting pipes will make no difference. The only difference between the OEM ones and Eisenmann as far as sound and performance are concerned is that the Eisenmann ones are shiny.

Of course! That's why I qualified the statement with "as far as sound and performance"! No mention of aesthetics!

Eisenmann polishes the INSIDE of their pipes!?!

I like the black series canister, it's pretty much invisible. A bit more pricey though. The connecting pipes are really nice compared to the stock ones which are flattened at some points. They'll improve the flow for sure but whether that would be an audible or performance difference is another question. |

I really think you would like the Dinan axleback with some test pipes. Power, little to no smell, and good, manageable sound (no drone on the freeway).

I've been tossing around the idea of getting an Eisenmann Race. Thanks for posting your thoughts. I really want to buy one, but I haven't had the courage to take the loss on my Vanguard exhaust (which I really like) at the risk of the Race being just too obnoxious and me coming right back to a Vanguard.

I heard the race was de toned to a lower db level?
I presume this was the de toned version unless its old stock? Does anyone have any idea when this was changed over. I'm thinking of getting the race but I'm a bit put off by this being quieter. Want that beast note that it had before! |
