OEM Exhaust Mod? [M3 E92] - Page 2

sylonien · 01-23-2013, 12:55 PM

I am well happy.

I don't find it too loud at all. Don't think I would of been happy with OEM mod only. Below 3k its very civilised still.

I guess BMW are too good at making it so quiet and capable, discreet at the same time. But I want it to be a bit mental (maybe even scary sounding?) when I put my foot down. Just didn't' sound like a V8/420hp was in there before.

PM on the way...

Hi, what is the pipe size and thickness used to replace the perforated pipes? Thanks!

sylonien · 01-24-2013, 04:07 PM

I don't know. Seem to remember 2.5" or something. Not 100% sure though.

Well here it is, finally a quick video. Been snowing badly since I've done it on Tuesday.

For me with the x-pipe....it's to raspy...

I think you have a lot of drone in your car at low rpm's ???
But that is just me...it's a very personal thing here...(sound )

It is very raspy above 3000rpm and screams like Gods private is trapped in a paper shredder.

Not much drone cruising in top gear 60-70mph. Its very normal. Only a bit more throaty when driving off gently compared to standard.

But I'm trying to cure the rasp... add resonator after x section or H section like akrapovic?

Finally have the time to put video together whilst I'm off sick.

sylonien · 04-23-2013, 05:40 PM

Finally managed to get some video inside the car whilst driving.

Hope ya like.

sylonien · 05-08-2013, 05:42 PM

New in car driving video!
Finally have a GoPro too! My new mount came and audio all sorted for some action.

Teaser, could be the last vid of this exhaust...

That sounds lovely.

jonasaurus · 05-09-2013, 01:22 PM

You still thinking bout swapping out to a new exhaust?

I need to pull my finger out get those EAS 80mm tips and have the OEM mod done at the same time!

sylonien · 05-09-2013, 05:43 PM

Too late, just back from the swap!!!

New exhaust on!! I'm knackered, dirty, excited, underwhelmed?! I don't know.
Need time to try to adjust.

Completely different now!!

AAAAHHHH!!!
