Eisenmann round or oval tips?

Hello, I am considering the eisenmann race exhaust for my m6. Dont know whether to go with oval or round tips... I like the look of both. Does anyone know if there is a difference in sound/loudness between oval or round tips on the race?

Also, is it worth it to get the xpipe (supersprint) when doing the mod? How does it change the sound? Thanks.

I got oval tips because everyone has round that is stock

I do not believe there would be any difference at all between round or oval.

Check this thread to see what to see what senior modders have to say

The tips make no difference in the sound. They are just preference to the owner. The oval tips are very close to the bumper and can if not installed properly, melt the paint. The SuperSprint X pipe will give the car better throttle response and provide more raspiness in the exhaust note. Well recommended IMHO.

I have my oval tips on order now.
I was totally torn between the two, but oval just edged it.

There is no difference in sound between the round and oval tip exhaust.Believe me, go for the oval tip IT LOOKS AMAZING you will be very pleased....The looks and sound of Eisenmann are the best!

For some reason I prefer the oval, it gives the car a more exotic look.
