Alright...here's a GOOD news :yuhoo: !! Exhausts came in and I got the back boxes installed last week at Gulf Exhaust Factory in Rashidiya..
First and foremost Id love to thank Franz (Simon*X) for being very supportive all the time and Id like to thank you Franz for getting me the boxes at the dirt cheap price, I still cant believe it. It took them around a month to reach since they were being hand-made, but now I can say the wait was worth it !
oK talking about the exhausts, looks...well, Ive preferred to go with the larger tips which are 83mm, rather than the standard size 76 mm, which gives a meaner look to the back of my car. Its steel and very shiny. Installation went very well, that was some good job from Gulf Exhaust's guys, thanks to John who made sure couple of times there was no any leakage once the boxes were installed. Fits perfectly !
Sound...it is by far the best sound I have heard on an E39 M5. Its deep and it rumbles. Its not raspy, which I tend to not like, so that worked out perfectly. The sound is perfect. Volume...well loud is not the word. It is extremely loud. At first, I was thinking it might be a bit too loud. Thats my first impression. Radio has to be turned higher otherwise I cannot hear it clearly. Performance, I have yet to push it so that remains to be seen. At idle its not bad but the second you put a load on it, it screams. I am a little fearful of what the neighbours may say...and of course the police. Overall I love it. Great job Reuter Motorsport !!!!
Yousef, cant forget you buddy.. I really appreciate your help for leaving your work and coming down to locate me Gulf Exhaust Factory, thanks for lending me your E36 too.
Once again, thank You Franz and thanks to Christian Reuter for promoting his products.. :thanks2:
