I heard that the Eis Race exhaust actually causes a loss of hp. Is this true? Cuz I want one. I love the way it sounds, and I love the oval tips. There's a plastic surgeon who comes to the same dealership and his M's lease is expiring. He said he'd sell me the setup, but if it causes loss of hp, i dont want that shiz.
And if I did take it from him, what should be paid for something like that, used?

I have the e-race and have not noticed any loss in power. It's just a section 3, to think that any section 3 exhaust gives you gains (or losses for that matter) is just talk.

I had E race on my M6, and I now have it on my M5......On the M6 I also had X pipes....that sh*t was crazy loud. With 2 kids now, I only have the exhaust on the M5, and it still sounds awesome.
I agree as said, section 3 does little to nothing to a 500 hp car - it is more for sound.

Whatever ur going to go with I only like the oval tip versions. The circle tips look stock and c/f tips look ricey / cheesy. I've owned both and I would take the meistershaft gt2 over the eisenmann race anyday. The sound difference is night and day between them. Build quality and welds look identical as well

I dont know why someone would buy a Meisterschaft over an Eisenmann? They are essentially the same price, yet the Meisterschaft is the Korean made replica to the Eisenmann...
If I'm driving a German car then I want an exhaust that's made in Germany for my car, but that's just my 2 cents.
