The price listed is AU$. 1$US = $1.45AU. Also AU is a free trade zone with the USA, so no import taxes, or sales tax levied. Here's the link: https://m3world.com.au/shop/exhaust-...catsresonator/ .

Interesting option. Do you happen to know what high flow cats are in that specifically? This bit was interesting from the description: "This is the most streetable and is more suited to daily driving without producing a significantly higher volume than an OE X pipe fitted with track pipes" Close to what I am after, don't really want any more volume than I have now which is plenty IMHO, especially after watching it get dynoed. Wish it had the forward X, but its a tough ask. |

If anyone is looking for the setup above, let us know. we've probably done about 100 tunes for DaveDee's customers over in AU. He is one of the OG Harrop owners but now has an M240. Its a very nice setup and we will probably put one on our recently acquired E92.

That X pipe was designed initially for your E9x tuning file and later tested with the Harrop SC. Results always brought smiles I think your DCT tune is essential for the Harrop kit, the X pipe certainly helps but often the forgotten plug change (and coil pack check) can make a significant difference |

None the less, it's been a back burner item for a while that I know I eventually want to tackle. Maybe this is the kick in the ass I need to get it done after that valvetronic x pipe ordeal. First order of business is to get a boost gauge connected and verify I don't have a boost leak. Check the small stuff first. |

The X pipe uses magnaflow 200 CPSI High flow cats, the resonators are designed to compensate for the removal of the 400 CPSI front cats and have internal designs to reduce drone and actually drones less than the OE X pipe It's much quieter cruising but quite a bit louder and aggressive under throttle. The setup was originally designed around 10 years ago for post members here but over the years quite a few have shipped to The US. It's still popular and is still made here locally by a friend who has his own custom exhaust shop. He specialises in header design and builds for hot rods and other custom cars. Quality is good and I'm always happy to organise these through the forum or Mike Benvo. BTW the first testing was done bringing the X further forward but it actually resulted in poorer performance which came as a surprise. The upside is it allows the kit to ship in 3 parts with the current setup. This significantly. reduces shipping costs. |

When you say its quite a bit louder under throttle do you mean compared to an uncut factory x pipe, or compared to test pipes? |

The factory X has quite a few crush bends and the mid 200 CPSI cats are not exactly high flow but the factory X has very small resonators and don’t do much. This is why quite a bit of time went into getting the resonators right as they are larger and just fit without causing clearance issues where the factory resonators are located. |

I have the M3 world x-pipe and it’s quality, fitment and sound is awesome - I love it!
Just wish I had the money for a Harrop s/c - maybe one day… |

Oddly enough- you only put down 7 more HP, but almost 30 lb/ft of torque more. The torque level I got was something else that seemed abnormally low compared to other dynos I've seen. |

Hi all, I recently had the Harrop supercharger installed and have had nothing but set backs. Thankfully none of them were due directly to the supercharger. After having the Harrop installed I proceeded with the 500 mile break In period due to the fact I also had the Rod bearings replaced. During that 500 mile beak in my car started throwing codes. Unfortunately one of my throttle actuators was bad even though I replaced both of them 3 years ago. I also was getting some type of crazy vibration during warm restarts. Never on cold starts but once the car was warm there was this weird vibration that lasted for about 3-4 seconds on restarts. I took the car in to get the throttle actuator issue resolved. But that crazy vibration was still there. I noticed it was getting more pronounced and when I would turn on the ac it would rear its ugly head. Once it became an every day occurrence I took it back to Rouge engineering for analysis. The trouble up until then was so sporadic they were unable to identify but this time the mechanic was able to experience the vibration and noticed it was caused by the deterioration of my cooling fan. So I ordered a new one and can't wait to get my baby back with all of the Demons exercised. I will keep you all posted now that I can finally drive her with hopefully no more issues.

While looking for boost leak, I noticed some interesting bypass valve behaviors.
It seems like my bypass valve would actuate to different positions(small difference but noticeable) depends on speed of my input. And it got stuck at half opening position in my second clip. I've never seen that before. |

The small difference seen in the first video with reference to the vertical line could be from the momentum of the sudden movement of the actuator arm due to rapid WOT vs. slow. The arm itself is adjustable (see small threads on the arm) but in this case calibrating the actuator is probably needed. See post regarding actuator calibration made earlier in this thread. Good luck. Keep us updated. Good find Sherlock.. Nice vids too.

To the 5 that have been waiting patiently for their kit for the last couple months, they should be arriving any day now! Unfortunately a DHL mix up caused three to be delivered to one customer in Colorado, but we had those picked back up by UPS and sent to their proper new home.
There are a few people on the wait list for end of year delivery. We have an allotment of approx ten kits. We will be reaching out to each of you for a deposit to secure your kit. Those looking to acquire a kit in 2022, please reach out to us. The next batch after this will likely be 2nd quarter 2023. Thanks! |
