Eisenmann exhaust - race or sport?
I have a 650xi GC - not much traffic or modding going on in that forum, so I thought I would ask here. How much louder than the stock system are the Sport vs. the race version of Eisenmann? I am worried that the sport version will barely be a noticeable increase in sound over the stock system, and I am also worried that the race will be too loud and/or drone at highway speeds. But dear lord the Eisenmann race sounds so nice!
Can people please chip in with any experience they have? Thanks in advance!

If you click the link to my sales thread, there is a video of both kits taking off from a dead stop, so you can have a good idea of what they both sound like. If you are interested in a system, I am currently blowing them out at $1000 below retail. PM me for info.

Thanks for the offer! I may be up that way a couple times this fall and will definitely let you know when! I would LOVE to hear the race in person to know how loud it really is. My heart says race but my head says sport.

I would err on the side of being too quiet, since droning is a concern. Whenever you slow to a stop, in a parking lot, etc and are in that headache causing 1800 rpm range, there will be regrets. It's a hassle, at least for me, to sell an exhaust system and switch up, been there done that. My time is valuable.

i agree with Bostons_Finest, the drone part is there but is not bad at all, i asked him if it was my imagination or it was actual drove, because it want that pronounced, inside the car is not loud but perfect exhaust note, out side its definitely loud and beasty, if you live in a quiet zone its something to consider because the car is loud, i can hear the growwwwww from far

This is my current dilemma as well. I'm deciding on two setups right now:
AMS catted, non-resonated Eisenmann mids, Eisenmann Sport or AMS catted, stock mids, Eisenmann race 1st world problem yes, but it's these little decisions that take forever to figure out. |

ERace if your "not" doing anything else. ESport if your changing downs. That's all to keep things classy like your referring to. Otherwise it will get real fucking loud! Still sweet but that's kinda what your alluding to.

Go with the E sport.
I had the E race and removed it. The drone was terrible on the hwy. Or get the Akra. No drone and sounds exotic up high.
