REMUS vs ikon

xtcpowersme · 11-28-2006, 06:40 PM

who has heard both in person? i've heard video clips and i don't think it justifies their true sounds. which exhaust do you think sounds better? the RE ikon exhaust or the remus exhaust. i'm planning to buy one but i'm torn between the two. eiesenmann is out ...too much for me =[

Driv3r · 11-28-2006, 07:23 PM

Eisenmann is in another league though!

xtcpowersme · 11-28-2006, 08:57 PM

that's my number 1 choice..but the price is sooo damn high

come on guys..ikon or remus!??!

for those who have ikon/remus...how's the sound?

I had an eisenmann and an ikon, there is very little difference, and I happen to think the ikon was a little more refined sounding, if not quite as loud as eisenmann race.

Mark Chen · 11-28-2006, 09:43 PM

anybody know how much about remus??

///M3NACE · 11-28-2006, 09:45 PM

ikon!

dmitri · 11-28-2006, 09:45 PM

remus is the quiet option

cm3rc · 11-29-2006, 12:26 AM

i like my ikon.

xtcpowersme · 11-29-2006, 12:32 AM

if remus is the quiet option..forget it

i guess ikon it is!!!

btw..does it sound better than a g35 exhaust?

oh cm3rc..SB's are dead.

and1bball919 · 11-29-2006, 12:45 AM

Lol does anyone have a clear sound of remus exhaust??

RaptorKTM · 11-29-2006, 12:48 AM

xtcpowersme · 11-29-2006, 01:04 AM

i wish there was a vid where two e90's side by side. one having remus and the other ikon.

RaptorKTM · 11-29-2006, 01:05 AM

i got mine welded on.

Get the Ikon and pair it with the Simota CF intake. Killer combo!!

My Ikon sounds louder now after almost two months of use. With the Simota intake and the Ikon your car will sound sick once you get it above 4000k RPM to red line. I like it a lot!

Lunars [west coast] are my favorite shoes.

i'm set on the ikon exhaust. don't know about intakes just yet. the intakes out right now are just ram intakes. still waiting for a CAI.

where can i get installation done? anywhere?

does the ikons sound better than a g35? are they as loud as bikes[motorcycles]?

and1bball919 · 11-29-2006, 04:10 AM

not even close to g35 they sound ok but iono i would rather get the remus

from my experience the ikon sounds a bit deep but after i get my custom piping it sure is gona sound a lot more deeper.

xtcpowersme · 11-29-2006, 09:37 PM

how much are the pipes..will getting the pipes still let me pass emmisions?

dmitri · 11-29-2006, 11:13 PM

If sound levels don't matter I'd get an Ikon (I understand its not as loud as Eisenmann)

I can't get pulled over for various reasons so I'm trying to get the remus but I cant find a US distributor
