Then, as I understand, the Eisenmann is more like a BMW M3, and the others are like a bigger engine? (for example a 147 GTA).

Alarms will come on with the Eisenmann? I don't want that... I like in Barcelona City. Maybe the Eisenmann is too loud for here.

Best Regards.

Eisenmann Race too loud sort of...

I really like the eisnemann race exhaust I just installed on my C320. Only problem is that the in cabin noise has been increased too much. The noise outside the car is to die for. Is there any underbody spray that i can use to insulate the exhaust well and heat shields? What could be causing this amplification. Do i need more trunk insulation. It is a C320 sedan. Please help. I love the look and the sound outside!!!

Regards,
Jeff

Does the exhaust "drone" or "humm" even during regular crusing?

or is it ONLY loud during acceleration?

P.S. Say you are crusing at 40MPH or 80MPH does it have a annoying drone to the exhaust?

Renault, I was thinking of doing that, do you think it is the trunk that is causing the loud resonance? and btw, it is only loud when accelerating in the 2600-3100 rpm range. the top part of the rev range sound sweetttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!! and it doesnt drone at speed and doesnt sound think part SL55 part M3 and you will get the deep n/a tone taht the wonderful exhuast has.

i dont know about F1 Car... maybe ALMS GT class car. Sounds good, but i still have cats and resonator, i think its just the new muffler. I want to make it quiet on the inside but keep it the same sound level on the outside. Any ideas on how / where to insulate for sound? Where doest most of the exahust sound come through into the cabin?

I installed an Eisenmann Sport last year and somehow by magic, my girlfriend tells me it's not as loud as when I first got it... I dunno if she's just gotten used to it or if it has broken in and really soften up with its resonance...

remove the resonator... it'll be louder, but will lose the droning.

not being as loud was a good thing for her.. I was about to sell it off but got her second opinion to actually keep it since it wasn't as noisy

Search the forum for a post authored by me with "VIR videos" and watch the vids to hear the Race exhaust...

I don't know a single person who's regreted the Eisenmann Race

talk to neal on the forum. He can get you a good deal. Other than that, NUK, will removal of the resonator really do the trick?

i got an eisenmann race exhaust on my c32. at first i thought it was loud and annoying, but after about 1000 miles with it, the sound has dampened a little and i've gotten used to it. i definitely like it much more than when i first got it and would not consider going back to my stock exhaust.

Brabus K3
Hello.

My car is a sportcoupe 230 Kompresor with Brabus pulley, High Flow Kat (200 cells metallcatalyst platform).

I deciding between:

1.- Eisenmann Sport Performance with 2x 90x70 mm tips (only for europe and AMG C30CDI rear bumper).

2.- Brabus. (I know It's like the remus)(I maybe take out the resonator on this one).

I want deeper (like a bigger engine) and louder than stock but not too loud. A BMW M3 will be the maximum loud that I want.


Best Regards.
