Just don't drive around @ 3500 rpm. At that engine speed it sounds as pleasant as a jackhammer.

Maybe it's my helmet, but the sound seemed even louder while on track. It gave me a headache. Ironically, I like the bypass pipes better for street driving. It really wasn't so bad for the 2+ hours each way to/from the track.

Have fun with it!

That thing looks incredible on your car. (How much did it weigh, do you recall?).

sure is a purdy exhaust...you should have done a stock dyno and compare with another dyno with the new system. Would be interesting to see if the hp increase claim can be verified. I am doing the same with my EP 4/16. Already have a stock baseline from the same place I plan to dyno on the 16th...

How much hp increase with and w/o valve open ????

I wish it didn't look so good, makes me want one if the power increase is significant over the claimed 14hp Europipe claims. I will verify ep's claim when I dyno it on the 16th...

2nd ...need a sound clip =)

Rockitman: Those 2 dynos wont be too comparable unless you have nearly identical weather conditions and do the pulls w/ the car at the same operating temps etc. There are a lot of variables when comparing dynos between days so I wouldnt usconsider the results terribly accurate.

You can put the video camera in the car, take a ride so it captures the sound from inside, can take vid from behind the car at idle, and can also so some road side drive-bys. I'm sure one of us could host it for you if you need it.

Kewl...

Yeah, I just got a call-- They're shipping them out tomorrow. I will take some pix before they get slapped on the car (which is just about ready to hit the track). I hope to get to the dyno at the end of this month, but won't do before and after runs-- just after. After plunking down for this Titanium fantasy stuff, I have to conserve my beans...

Hey Sky,

Any more news on how your exhaust is shaping up? Do you still love it? Any dyno news, or AV clips for us to listen to?

On a technical note, where do they fit the switch? I assume they use one of the spare Porsche switches on the dash (assuming it's like the OM Sports exhaust)?

BTW, Anyone know if Kreis-sieg have a UK or European importer/distributor?
