Installed Eisenmann exhaust after two months of waiting. I did the brake duct and CF front lip from Eurodyne last week. Thanks to Jo for the quick service and Nate for getting it done. I'm changing the interior this week, two tone black and blue seats and door panels.

How do you like the sound,I been thinking so much about doing that exhaust to my car and headers some day .

I love the sound. Chris, Dee and Jo was with me on Sunday. They loved it too. It is a shame you can't come by and hear it first hand. BTW I won't be coming to Socaleuro becuz I'm having my interior done. Otherwise, I'd arrange it for us to meet.
You should still try to make it out,is your the black one or what color is it.

My interior is black but it is being swapped out for the blue/black interior offered in a Lemans blue M5. I'll post pics as soon it is completed.

Nice ,any HP gains ?? Do you have the X pipe ?
CGRM5
06-24-2009, 09:23 PM
I'm contemplating adding the xpipe. Maybe I can hear it on yours when you install it before I do it myself. Don't want it too loud.
