Remus vs X Pipe sound clipīs

As some of you might know I installed today the Remus exhaust on my 4.4i. My first comment was that sound from outside was amazing but you could barely feel any difference from inside with windows up. Well after driving few more hours with Remus, I can definitely tell you thereīs a noticeble improvement in sound inside with with windows up.
I have also the X pipe, and this might help to increase the sound. Windows down and itīs a marvel to step on gas on red lights

Made some clips with only the X pipe and with X pipe + Remus installed. The clipīs donīt do it justice to the improving sound Remus provide. The difference iin sound from a regular X5 to one with X pipe , is much smaller than an X5 with X pipe to X pipe + Remus.

X5 4.4i with X pipe

X5 4.4i with Remus + X pipe (have in mind the clip donīt do justice to great sound it makes)

As you could hear, difference in sound is not that big from the clip, but in real life is almost night and day, believe me.

The clip with X pipe was made with car parked between walls. Next week Iīll make a clip with X pipe + Remus on that same place between walls, I believe this way the difference in sound will be more noticeble.

Great clips, J.Seven! You've convinced me to buy a Remus system.

So was that your wife at the end of the clip telling you to stop making so much noise?

Thanks for your words guys
asawadude, that was my baby siter sun. Actually it was quite funny. There are some guys who are building a house near mine, and they were all out side the house. I first started to make the test inside the garage and the sound was really amazing. When I stopped the engine i could here those guys asking one another "what was that? did you hear that"
Then I put the car outside the garage and made a new clip, so this time those guys could saw what was the cause for the mysterious sound , they were just smiling and overwelmed by the sound. Thatīs when the baby siter came up, very scared and asking what was making so much "noise" as she said. Well I told her itīs not noise, it was pure music, and she looked at me as if I was some guy from Mars ..well Iīm already use to it.
Last time my wife gave this same look was when I was with a friend seeing my new set of Good Year F1 installed on my other car, we were both standing, looking to the tires and shaking our heads saying how beautiful those tires look. She was like "Jezzzz you both are nuts" Itīs just to much for her to understand how can a lousy piece of black rubber can have any beauty .

Go for Remus, believe, you wont regret it.
