Exhaust Upgrade...

[romeokc10]

I'm not a big fan of the single wall exhaust tips, makes it look cheap, for that kind of money they should be rolled double wall tips. I think I'll keep my stock 4.6is exhaust and go with some more aggressive looking tips like these, plus it's a lot cheaper option as I'm only after the look...lol!

I believe they're trying to keep the look as close to stock as possible... I think you may be the first person who ever used the word "cheap" to describe an Eisenmann exhaust!

I have to agree with Romeo. They do LOOK cheap-as he pointed out. We all know Eisenmann's great quality, and are like Stella Artois-reassuringly expensive , its just the single wall that would put me off.

Personally I plumped for the 160x80 (I think) 'oval' back boxes for my 4.4, much akin to the look of the standard 4.6's.

Would be good to see them on your beast, accompanied by some blips on the loud pedal-perhaps shut me and Romeo up...yes?

Installation is scheduled for Thursday; I'll see what I can do!

Not a fan either of single wall exhaust tips.Unfortunately, I am another person that will say that particular Eisenmann exhaust does look cheap and not well made.I weld my own and clients s/s exhausts and there are at least 3 reasons the finish could be better on the Eisenmann:-
1.Welding on those tips to the muffler is a bit gross and badly finished.
A stainless steel weld can easily be made to be smooth and less noticeable.

2.Welding the support brackets on the main muffler body is not ideal as its the weakest point,best to weld them on the reinforced edges,but unfortunately ,others aftermarket companies are doing the same.To see how and where support brackets are welded ,just look at your stock mufflers!

3.Single wall tips are nothing more than a polished s/s pipe and are one way of cutting production costs.Just look at how much the 4.8is (beautiful) tips cost from your dealer

Ok; I guess we've officially reached the "I hate the Eisenmann single wall exhaust tips" saturation point!

I'll leave it to Nate@IND to defend the manufacturing issues you identified as I certainly don't pretend to to an expert...

Install is done; it sounds great!

I'll try and take some pictures that do it justice, and maybe a quick video.

As to the exhaust tip issue. On close inspection it looks like they're dual-wall and taper down to single wall; if that makes sense? In other words, when you look into the tip you can clearly see it's much thicker internally and has a metal mesh appearance. Kinda like this:

They sell the exhaust with double-walled 4.6-style tips as well.

Can anyone answer my question?

BTW I do like the look of those tips with the double edge....classy. Like a leather bound book...
