New exhaust sound clip from our MIR track rental

I promised the forum a better sound clip from all my recent exhaust work. It's just a clip while parked, but it's all I got.

Couple of pics too.

Thanks for the kind words.

Can't wait to see the conversion, I love the E63 front so much better than the E55. Your headers in yet?

See exhibit A.


Exhibit A:




My best is a 13.49@102.5. I was a few ticks slower than that this time out, even with my new exhaust mods. Working theory is that with the headers, deletion of secondary cats and removal of resonator has richened up the car to the point where my boxed Evotech tune isn't taking advantage. I'm getting the car custom dyno tuned by LET on 4/26. So hopefully she'll be in the 13.2X range.
