EISENMANN RACE/SS XPIPE FITTED!!

Well, after 3mths of debating, and a month of waiting, the Eisenmann Race System and the Supersprint X pipe finally were fitted to my beast yesterday.

At idle the system sounds like stock, at 1000-2000rpm it is v boomy, then at >2k rpm its rumbly, then post 4k its an animal and very racerlike.

Its a lot louder than the Supersprint full system i heard recently, and a lot louder than the Eisenmann/Kelleners with no xpipe.

It will take some burning in i think before the boominess calms down (this has always happened when i have fit a new exhaust to my cars), but I love it!!!

I went for the 76mm pipes which was the best choice, as they look like slightly larger shinier ones than stock. I like the M look of the M5!

Anyway, i know...PICS/VIDS/PICS/VIDS!!

I'll get some sorted once i can nick my mate and his digicam

Meanwhile i'll be blasting to Goodwood Festival of Speed tomorrow to 'burn it in!!'

cheers for all the advice etc over the past mths, the board is a great place!

all the best
foxy
