Exhaust setup to try and replicate SLR sound?

OK on the exhaust note - what setup best replicates the SLR rumble?

So far most setups I have heard are more "whiney" / "metallic"...

getting rid of 9ft of tubing per side should do it.

imho, open cut-outs sound horrible. i don't know what the slr exhaust consists of, but not routing the outlets all the way to the rear of the car has to be at least partially responsible for the improved sound.

Yup so no X or H pipe involved there either... I would have thought straight through from front cats back into oem mufflers should be allot closer I would think ...? Get rid of resonator / and ny X / H bank linkage...?

Long pipes will drone though ... thats the only issue without resonator I expect.

I think a few people have that set up and it sounds pretty good. Listen to renntechE55s video, his car sounds mean as hell!
