Eisenmann sport or race?
Hi guys,
I'm looking at purschasing an Eisennmann exhaust for my E85 3.0si but I'm not sure whether to go for sport or race? My car is a daily drive so I don't want any droning but I don't want the exhaust to be too subtle either. For example I had a Remus years ago on my MX-5 and I found that way too close to stock. Feedback appreciated.... cheers, MM |

Sport exhaust you cannot go wrong with. Own a set myself. So did GP20. Search the forum for comparo vids (I did one on the Ms).

Race defiantly for Eisenmann - think its one of the best sounding exhausts.

I'm really thinking louder is better. Hey I'm 40 and the only thing that's too loud for me is an RPI or open pipe muffler delete. Waiting on some AA headers to get some more grunt out of my Diablos. Just check with the significant other first as they might have to speak a little louder in the car
 . Go with the race. (cool, 100 posts, Dont I get a medal or something

Hello, Remus is definitely on the more subtle side. If you daily drive the vehicle, drone is definitely something to consider. The Eisenmann Race setup will definitely let drone into the cabin. It does sound great, but the drone is something to consider. I never really thought the Sport sounded bad  |

Thanks a lot guys,
I'm still not sure, Although the race sounds awesome I want to avoid the probelm of droning when I go on long trips. From what I hear it must one of the best systems out there for the Zed. Miguel |

To combat drone just drop down a gear and cruise around 3k rpm and it should have a sweet sound.
