Meisterschaft without LXR pipes?

[HXS]

Anyone have a video of this set-up? I'd like to hear how it sounds.

Just wondering if it's worth it to spend the extra $2K for the LXR pipes.

I'm deciding between Meisterschaft, RPi resonated GTM, or Borla.

Installing it today, but with the LXR pipes.
PM me your number and we can talk.

I have the LXR pipe as well and, to me, it was worth it. There are a few threads in here that discuss pros and cons.

^ worth it in terms of HP gains or sound?

I did the LXR on my M6 and felt the cost was not worth the install (already had the axle back Meister) ... the before and after dynos at EAS didn't yield much gains if any and the sound, to me, was still diffused. So basically no real hp/tq gains and no tangible gains in sound. Now this is my opinion and others make think different as its very subjective (sound part) but the dynos proved no gains.

If I get another S63tu engine car I will do the E Race or RPI. I had the E race on my F10 M5 and I like the sound better. Its close but the E race would be my preference.

Hi Vic. I'm gonna try to Dyno this coming week to see what gains I achieved from adding the dp and going from gts to straight pipe.

I'm reticent to disagree with Vic, but...and the whole discussion is somewhat subjective...

I think the sounds is great. I listened to the set-up without the LXR and the addition is to me more aggressive. I got the exhaust and LXR at the same time and the power gain is noticeable; I can't speak to which component is more responsible or if it's both. I'm going to add some sort of tune, either something from Dinan when it comes out in five years or by going down the same route that RPI Dave did, and I'll be sure to get a before and after dyno.

There's some folks here who helped me make the decision to add the LXR and hopefully they'll chime in, but that's my $.02

I have the full exhaust with AMS catless downpipes and I have been getting thumbs up on the street everywhere I go. It sounds brutal.

Video does not do it any justice.
