Santa came early !
Re: Santa came early !
That does look like a beast, ones I've heard on youtube fitted to non-M 6 cylinder cars sound very nice - not much change from £100 I bet
Re: Santa came early !
Couldn't wait any longer so fitted it tonight (in the dark by torch light !!!)

Re: Santa came early !

Re: Santa came early !
Took the car out for a drive this morning and it's not annoying at all !
At low RPM you get this noticeable growl but put your foot into the carpet and wow ! it sounds incredible real deep tone and pure music !!
Don't think I will be playing the stereo much !!

Boysie
It's not as load as a TVR ! Which I glad about really, didn't want the car making a noise that it couldn't live up to !

Re: Santa came early !
Like a small child with a new toy wanted to hear it from outside
So I had two options
1, Let my 23yr old son drive it
2, Get him to video me driving past
I opted for option 2 as I've seen him drive his BM !!

Re: Santa came early !
I'm not a lover of today's "sporty" exhaust notes...Its something I'd avoid being 40 years old, but......
That really does sound gorgeous

Re: Santa came early !
I'm with you at 45 I really didn't wanting it sounding like a boy racers imprezer !!!
Re: Santa came early !
I must have one of these on my 2.8,
A full stainless is on cards for next year anyway so it's justified
Does it have an Eisennman reference/model number or similar?
Where did you buy it?
Is yours still catted?

Re: Santa came early !
I did loads of research and there are loads if exhaust manufactures out there that specialise in stainless steel systems but they can sometimes be made with a thiner steel and give a tinny sound which wasn't for me.
This one is an Eisennman from
http://www.eisenmann.co.uk/
I only bought the back box as the rest of the system was still in good condition and it still has the cats
You can buy a full stainless steel system for the same price I paid for the back box but I wanted a growl and Eisennman met my demands !
They are a friendly bunch and give good advice.

Re: Santa came early !
Thanks for the info woody. I'm just wondering if this back box would be too "chavtastic" on a De-catted motor.......I can but try. Time to smash open the money box!

Re: Santa came early !
I was worried about the same thing, Eisennman do a sport option which isn't quite as aggressive and loud !
I'm sure de-catting the car makes it louder anyway as it doesn't choke the flow of exhaust gases
