Seems we cant say anything negative about Hamann on these forums 
=) I like both setups ...this RD one sounds fantastic

but not nice to say lies about one thing we have no experience and no knowledge, so yes indeed all your critics (when based on facts) are welcome.I do not like Diddy but never met him, so I say no judgement

I think we should try to use the same terminology here...maybe it should be called double exhaust with quad tip for the RDs and single exhaust with quad tip for the Hamanns :-)
Not sure why people are so sensitive about hamann. I think hamann overall makes a quality product, but I must say that some of their aero kits are a bit tacky.

YO man there is no police here but not nice to say lies about one thing we have no experience and no knowledge, so yes indeed all your critics (when based on facts) are welcome.

I hope I did not mention that I don't like Hamann. In other thread posted by M-Power regarding his Hamann exhaust, I provided my opinion about Hamann exhaust - I do like it. Remember. From the bottom of my heart, I like Hamann exhaust because it's the best bang for the buck that you offer. $2300 cannot be beaten by any other tuner here.
I've never heard Haman exhaust sound before, but I do believe all members here that they sound fantastic. That's why I keep asking freed0m "have you got your Hamann exhaust installed yet" like every week.
I plan to go for Hamann, too because others are too expensive, when I go for quad exhaust at the rear.
The chance I will become your customer in the future is very high
Anyway, if I said something offense to you, I do apologize, but I hope we all be adult here and need to think twice or thrice before shooting out the acronym "BS".
"It's better be friend than foe"
Now for RDSport, it's a two-pipe system and, I think, it's good for reducing back pressure. Remember, I use the phase "I think" which means that might not be true.
However, RDSport is out of reach for 99% of members here, and I think Hamann is the optimal choice.I like Hamann exhaust tips to death, honestly!
All in all, let's put everything aside, and be friends together. Alright?

I'm thinking about a "few" mods on my car and I already see how big the hole in my bank is going to be :'(
But comparing $2300 and 3000EURO, I'd go for hamann, since my main focus is to look

There are 4(Quad) exhaust pipes sticking out, so it's a quad exhaust.
think of it like an modded out 525 with M5 badges....
for looks - this is a GREAT mod, but I dont think this will make a car go perform better - consider it more like the m-tech mod. looks great though!!
