Dinan BMW M6 - Exhaust Sound vids

Hey there,

Took some quick GoPro videos of the Dinan exhaust note if anyone is interested in the sound. Maybe it can help someone if they're trying to decide which exhaust to go with.

This was a decent run showing off the sound of the exhaust:

Quicker video with harder shifts:

Oh my disclaimer: All videos were shot in Mexico going 25mph. Let me know your thoughts! Thnx!

Sweet!!! But I must say, although the picture is clear and crisp, the audio doesn't do it justice. Sounds way better in person! Thanks for sharing the vids.

Perhaps maybe since it was put in the back?

Yeah it was in the back right next to my license plate between the exhaust tips. Great spot for picking up the sound. GoPro cam was not modified - just the GoPro cam out of the box - nothing more. WHen I put it up on my car facing forward I pickup a lot of wind noise depending on placement. This spot right next to the license plate worked out nicely for what I was trying to do.
