I was disappointed when i first installed my eisenmann race exhaust. It was too quiet, the following day i removed my resonator. Never looked back. But now i want quads.

I called Eisenmann directly in Germany today. The tech rep told me to drive about 1K miles to burn the wool inside the exhaust. He said the race sound would come once you drive all the way upto the 1K mile mark. So.. I shall wait I guess?

Just removed the resonator and the loudness slightly increase. However, it is still not loud enough. I did a comparison with an M5 with stock muffler. Mine is not as loud as the m5's muffler.
