pio, indeed its loud me too leaning towards quite version exhaust for my m5, btw i noticed in your posted video that the check engine light is on, is it caused by the exhaust? thanks.
Hi Pio, thanks for posting the video! It has been useful for fellow v10 brothers I might need to get a db meter so I can have a quantitative benchmark with my current E-race setup. The exhaust note is very deep and that tends to create more resonance...I'm leaning towards the quieter S version. You still have the secondary race cats on right??
Yes, I have race cats on. A sound pressure meter is a good tool to have to set up your home theater or to calibrate any audio device - they're not expensive either, check this out;
Pio, I noticed you have the Gen3 Race with the race cats and no resonators, is this correct? I've been listening to your video clip numerous times, I think there is quite a strong drone in the 1st and 2nd gear between 2k-3.5k rpm. Am I right? But it is difficult to justify the actual sound from a vidclip. Personally, I feel the drone might be over bearing for me. I'm hoping ASR will post the quieter S version of gen3 exhaust soon.
Right, between 2k to 3,5k rpm is where the sound is loudest. In the clip, I tried to go through as many rev ranges as possible so you could get an idea. I really like the sound, don't know about the long term though. I want to wait to hear it after I have the Evosport headers on before I decide if I need to quite it down more. I guess I'm getting old.... LOL!

Hey M-Power 77, the light on the dash is an "increased emissions" warning that went on the day before I got the exhaust on. It went away for a few days and as luck would have it, came on the day I filmed the video which was last Thursday. It was still on yesterday. I have to get it checked out. My guess is a bad 02 sensor.

Pio, I'm sure resonators will quiet down, but I'm not sure by how much. That's why I'm curious how much quieter and less resonance ASR's Gen3-S version exhaust system is compare to Gen2

Guys, I know I owe you all a video, I've just been swamped. I'm charging the video camera up now and will do it tomorrow God willing!
q8kamikaze - it feels STRONG! However, I got the intake and tune at the same time so its the entire system working together. The car pulls noticably harder then before. Today I got on it a bit and when I looked at the speedometer I was going 110 in a flash. Unfortunately, I dont have any dyno numbers or track number, just my butt meter. I will video some pulls tomorrow as well so you guys can see for yourselves.
I CANNOT WAIT to get the Evosport parts!!
Again, sorry for the delay on the video....
wow that's exciting take care the beast man and thanks for the reply .
