Exhaust comparison poll

yonlamar · 03-29-2017, 05:18 AM

Hello I am a new frozen white E92 M3 owner and am curious on other's opinions on the Meisterschaft GT2 VS Meisterschaft GT2 with track pipes(primary cat delete) VS Remus Race with track pipes(primary cat delete).Is there any difference in sound with the titanium VS the stainless steel for the Meisterschaft? All input is appreciated, thanks for voting!

Meisterschaft GT2

Meisterschaft GT2 with track pipes

Remus race with test pipes

I run the GT2 titanium with stock cats in place and it sounds the best out of any exhaust I've heard thus far, but it can be a bit loud for some folks. Removing the primary cats makes the exhaust sound a lot more unruly and chaotic in my opinion and loses the uniqueness.

I'm running Remus race with test pipes and gutted secondary cats.
Has a little rasp but it literally sounds like a 458 when you get on it.

You'd have to be crazy not to run test pipes/catless with a good sounding rear section.

Smell isn't bad at all

So the titanium sounds better than the stainless steel?

Are you running a tune or something similar to get rid of the check engine light from going catless? Thanks for the input guys!

I've not heard the SS version of it, but I assume it will be even deeper in tone. I really dig the sound and weight savings of Titanium however.

I run the evolve tune with it.

Remus race with test pipes is probably the way to go, and if you want more just do a secondary cat delete.

I'm hoping to get some sound clips soon so I'll let you know when I record them.

R3dliner · 03-29-2017, 02:08 PM

why are you limiting yourself to just those two exhaust OP?

Oh okay, it would be awsome to hear both of these in person. Thanks for your input. I think im narrowing it down to the SS version or Remus Race with test pipes.

I just noticed that you are located in San Diego! Im in Encinitas, do you go to any local meets? A sound clip of the setup would be appreciated, thanks!

I am open for suggestions. On my 335i I had the Remus Race with catless dp's and resonator delete and it sounded amazing.

squartus · 03-29-2017, 10:08 PM

SS is usually a deeper more American V8 type of sound, the lighter steels get more of a higher pitch/exotic sound.

Thank you! I think I prefer the Titanium sound.

OP, stop pussy footing around...if you want to be seen and heard this is the only way to go!

I ended up going to the meet in Mira Mesa with some of the La Costa M owners. I will probably go to the La Costa meet this week though.

My setup is very similar sounding to fabians if you heard his.

Remus race fully catless no regrets

Fabians car is insane especially with the gurgle tune!

philmeister4 · 04-02-2017, 10:40 PM

In the words of Donald J. Trump "believe me" OP, you want test pipes/X-pipe. Most noticeable bolt on power and finally lets that high-winding engine purr.

Don't limit yourself to an exhaust that doesn't sound good with test pipes.

I'm 100% biased, check out Corsas + X-pipe. You'll think it's a Maserati making those noises.

Take your time, researching exhausts has been the most fun mod research I've done yet. Most subjective and so many options.

CarlosDanger · 04-03-2017, 08:02 AM

I have a gt2 with Dinan mid pipe now but previously had test pipes with GT2 and I preferred the sound of the latter. For some reason it sounded better but my current set up sounds great too.

Got any videos of either of those setups by chance?
