Anyone local running a Gintani Race w/stock pipes?

Enforcer · 04-09-2013, 07:56 PM

As the title states, is there anyone in New York/Tri-State area that currently owns a Gintani Race w/stock pipes that can help a brother out? Looking to hear your exhaust note in person before placing an order... I scoured all youtube and forum videos and I know they simply don't do justice. I'm concerned of it being too "loud" as police in my neighborhood hands out tickets like cheap marketing flyers, and I simply want to hear it in person to make the determination. I'm leaning towards the Gintani Race with valve control.

Thanks guys~

Wish I could be help. I'm currently looking to swap my gintani sport for the race. I also have gintani full catless xpipe.

I have it with chanllenger x pipes and its loud get stop a few times but once they see its an M3 and i tell them its stock they usually walk away. I haven't gotten a ticket yet for the M for exhaust and its about to be a year since I got it installed.

I got a ticket a month ago for my exhaust, gintani full catless xpipe and sport rear. Ticket says inadequate/no muffler. Going to court in a few weeks.

Sorry to hear that... I used to get tickets for my Termi exhaust on my Ducati, the officier wrote exhaust is for race application off road use only.

Bweitz1 - are you in NY or FL?

Are you willing to sell the Gintani rear section?

I just had a Gintani race installed this morning with the stock pipes. It's very loud, very aggressive. Drones under 2k rpm. I imagine it would sound like the world is coming to an end when paired with a catless pipe.

Sweet congrats! I'd love to check out your setup. I'm sure the sound is intoxicating.
