Id love to see some pre/post observations on eisenmann sport vs race.

I intend to edit in Ajax-Prime's Eisenmann Sport into the video as soon as we can meet up to shoot it. Ajax-Prime would be a good person to talk about the difference between the Eisenmann exhausts since he went from an Eisenmann Race to an Eisenmann Sport about a month ago.

I'm happy with my race, it's a little loud but you get used to it. I WONDER how much quieter the sport is but I still wouldn't change it.

What a great comparation !!
Thanks so much, and Dinan would be my choice for the balance in the sound ; )

Personally, I would buy the Eisenmann again over the AA. I just like the sound of it.

Well, when they rolled it out after putting the Sport on, I said to myself 'it sounds like a sewing machine! WTF have I gone and done?' It took a while to warm up to it. It still has that bass rumble, but similar to the AA, it seems to flatten out up the rpm range.

Conversation/phone/music are no problem with the Race, I just needed something a little quieter. I still wish they made something in between the two.

When the Race started sitting on my bench for a while, I was *that* close to putting it back on and selling the Sport.

Frank, we'll get together soon and do the update. I'm thinking about maybe waiting til the wheels come in.

AA is not a quiet exhaust by any means. It can have it's annoying momnts at certain RPMs, particularly at low speeds in town.

Ajax: When are your wheels coming in? I hope to contact the guy (navfaz) who has a Meisterschaft GT2 to video the both of ya on the same day.

Between the Eisenmann and the AA, I'd go with the Eisenmann. The only downsides to it are the price and the weight (a few pounds heavier than stock). The sound of the Eisenmann (Sport and Race) is perfect IMO. For a daily driver, I'd choose the Sport. For a weekend car, I'd choose the Race.

I'm guessing the RACs will arrive sometime around the first or second week of December. I'll join you guys if you get together to add to the video and maybe we can do another photoshoot. All of our cars will look very different compared to the last one.

Tlud great point you bring up about our oem exhaust, imo i just love when my wife wants to take my M to publix which is right around the corner from the house i walk out with her just to hear how amazing it sounds, while she pulls away from the house.

I might just keep that part of my car stock maybe add an xpipe who knows.
