I was looking into it and it looks exactly like the Lorinser except different name. I know somebody had it I dont remember who

any comments before I take the plunge

I originally wanted the eisanmann exhaust but just too many people have it already

Josh has "A" remus exhaust... not sure which one he has, but you can double check with him...

Everyone has Eisenmann because you can't go wrong with their exhaust... it sounds good, and its priced well compared to others

The race exhaust version is very nice, very throaty, yet not obnoxious (sp?) like them ricers... trust me, no one has ever said they weren't happy with their eisenmann purchase...

just take the plunge... get custom tips welded on if you want a slightly different look...

I wanted the Romulus which has the rectangular thick tips but they're only like 76mm. I also heard SuperSprint will be something to wait for but it only comes single tip which I dislike with the 430 rear bumper

this is the pic of the Remus sport exhaust



these are the Romulus exhaust



I already spoke to Remus and their techs told me the Romulus has a deeper, louder tone than the Sport exhaust which I believe Josh has.

any word on the Supersprint...I really dont want to make a mistake with the exhaust...only want to deal with this one time

i heard that supersprint exhausts aren't very loud at all... just slightly louder than stock...

not sure if its worth the investment if thats the outcome....

the remus one does look good though...

thats what I like about them...they look very similar to the Lorinsers

Im just surprised nobody has tried this exhaust its not expensive I believe around $700 probably cheaper

lou...I agree the sound of the 430 is better, but renntech has a kit that will get the 320 to 404 hp, not bad for a six (granted it costs 23k) haha

Lou, $700 is too much for that exhaust!!! It's not even a cat-back... heck it's just a muffler...

I wanted the Remus Futura exhaust, but they stoped making it, they told me I wouls need to get a order of atleast 20 to get the production going again....
