So I joined the Eisemann club...

...And this exhaust is sick. Little kids stare, it sets off car alarms, and best of all, when you roll up the windows, it's quiet. I gotta get a video camera and record it.

You do know that it is still loud outside the vehicle after the windows are up, right?

No s*** Sherlock, but I was amazed at how much sound the car keeps out. Also, I have no idea about this drone everyone's talking about. It doesn't drone on mine at all.

LOL! You'll have to forgive him.

Eisenmann is good stuff. Eisenmann makes the Porsche sport exhaust, Tequipment roll bar, etc.

Did you get the RACE version?

Oh fine, but the camera blows:

Start-up inside with all windows and sunroof open, and a little drive around:


Full-throttle, windows open:


Normal driving and hard take-off with windows up:


Hard take-off, outside:


Normal take-off, outside:


Edit: It is the race version, the previous owner had it on there (so it's broken in) and I just got it from him. He had factory 4.6 tips put on, so it looks stock.

In addition to Porsche exhausts mentioned above, Eisenmann also makes most of the AMG exhausts, which is why they very rarely make Mercedes exhausts or make them years after the model first went into production.

Yeah, the AMG exhausts. Ironically, Eisenmann is located in Stuttgart also, where both Porsche and MB both have close history.

Sorry for the OT, Eisenmann is good stuff.

I want to get the race version for my 4.8is, plus put the x-pipe.

Personally, I have aftermarket resonators (again, previous owner) and it sounds great. He said he had a friend with the race and an x-pipe and it was raspy. This is raspy too, so I can't imagine what it's like with the x-pipe.
