Following on from its one-off 911 Speedster unit, Stuttgart-based exhaust specialist Eisenmann GmbH has developed a rear muffler to suit the Audi TT RS.
Available for both the Coupe and Roadster models, the muffler is constructed from the nickel-chromium-based alloy Inconel – the same material used to make F1 exhausts, and not only remains stable at temperatures of over 1000 degrees Celsius but it’s 40 percent lighter than the factory item it replaces. The recommended retail price is €3,200.
Bad Segeberg-based wheel manufacturer Schmidt Revolution has released images of its Golf Cabriolet demo vehicle.
Apart from those new rims and the Rockford Fosgate/Kenwood system installed by B&S Audio Company, the Golf is basically as it left the factory. The Shift design alloy wheels with centre lock effect caps pictured, which are sized 8.5 x 19-inches and wrapped in 235/35R19 Conti Sport Contact 5 tyres, are finished in high gloss silver, but titanium and satin black coatings can also be specified.
Here’s a video created by Bimmerpost forum member radiantm3 to test a new camera mounting system in order to find the best way to capture audio from a car. Both the M3 Coupe and 1 Series M Coupe have been fitted with an Akrapovic Evo exhaust system, Brembo 380 GT brake upgrade kit, KW V3 suspension set-up and Volk Racing TE37SL wheels. Out of the two, it’s the M3’s symphony that’s doing it for us. What do you think?

Italy’s Mattia Santino Merli has created this nice piece of footage for Clash Production as a fitting tribute to the BMW 1 Series M Coupe. A mere 80 examples of the 246 kW (335 hp) Baby M made it over to Italian soil, and here’s iconic drifter, Nicola Tesini, destroying the Pirellis on a couple of them. The hoonage takes place on a closed-off area as well as the legendary circuit of Monza. Enjoy!
