Sounds good, the ticking noise is not a plus though but regardless.

The cutouts sound a lot different in person compared to video... which is weird. Than again, no video does justice to any exhaust out there...

mounting location of GoPro

tbal, I just bought a GoPro Hero 2 and your mounting location on the E55 gives SUPERB audio. Will you tell me exactly where it was mounted?? Tracking my car tomorrow and Really want to get this sound.

Thanks!!!!!!

Bro mounted it... I believe it was right about the bumper there is a couple inches where you can set the suction cup down.

I mounted it right under the tail light. No other place where it can get full suction

Outstanding. I just picked up the Gopro Hero 2 and plan to mount it up front and run an external mic to your location. Two thumbs up again for your sound capture, best I've heard anywhere.

No prob. Looking forward to seeing the footage

What features does the hero 2 have that the original one doesn't?

That cls55 has a very stockish sounding exhaust... my guess he also did a 2nd cat delete.

ssonss1 has just a resonator delete and its quite loud.

I never really was interested in the gopro until a few days ago, and haven't had any experience with the original, but their support people told me it's "twice as good" whatever that means. Their website says the same thing:

"2X More Powerful in Every Way
Professional 11MP Sensor
2x Faster Image Processor
2X Sharper Glass Lens
Professional Low Light Performance
Full 170º, Medium 127º, Narrow 90º FOV in 1080p and 720p Video
120 fps WVGA, 60 fps 720p, 48 fps 960p, 30 fps 1080p Video
Full 170º and Medium 127º FOV Photos
10 11MP Photos Per Second Burst
1 11MP Photo Every 0.5 Sec Timelapse Mode
3.5mm External Stereo Microphone Input
Simple Language-based User Interface
Wi-Fi BacPac™ and Wi-Fi Remote™ Compatible (coming soon)
Long Range Remote Control of up to 50 GoPro Cameras
Wi-Fi Video/Photo Preview + Playback + Control via GoPro App
Live Streaming Video and Photos to the Web"


Really looking forward to hitting the track. Was up til 5am last night running the lines for the external mic to mount at the rear. Still experimenting with placement, so far too much road noise but the E63 heartbeat still pounds the bass from a standstill. Thinking about mounting the mic up under/inside the rear bumper with the end sticking out near the exhaust. I remember one mercedes produced video where you could hear the exhaust...and only the exhaust. I wondered how they did it, because it sounded amazing. Seems like the automatic gain on the volume is disabled when i use an external mic, so that's killing me at speed.

Now if i can just figure out a way to edit and compress 16 gigs worth of HD video...

From the GoPro to desktop, from there directly to YouTube
