Fabspeed Performance Exhaust!!!!!!

Just had the guys at Fabspeed install there high flow cats, x pipe, and new race exhaust! Sound is amazing! No check engine lights, no resonating on the hiway. Amazing throttle response. You need this!!!!

I didn't even know that Fabspeed had released an exhaust other than their cats and xpipe.

I wasn't aware of their exhaust either. Must be cool to have their prototype. The tips do look a little too tucked in, but it sounds awesome

I think it sounds amazing. I'll definitely be interested in the finished product. I have the HFC's and X-pipe behind me in a box waiting to get installed

Check engine light might come on in the next 1,000 miles due to the HFC's though. They don't appear right away due to the way the system is monitored.

I used to have the fabspeed x pipe + hfc + OEM exhaust and there was no drone at all. It's not loud maybe 15-20% louder than OEM cat back system.
Cheek out the Bastuck clubsport. It doesn't drone at all with the fabspeed pack.

Eventually it probably will.... Mine has twice so far. The first time I cleared it because I wanted to just make sure the light was from the HFC's. The second time it cleared itself after a couple hundred miles or so and hasn't come back since. I guess these cats are right on the threshold, so it may turn on once in awhile. But after a number of drive cycles (I guess that's what it needs) it will probably go back off again.

I see from your profile your located in new york too? Any issues with the inspection here yet? I was thinking of getting the xpipe with the hfc's too but worried about the CEL. I have the AA exhaust on the car now...

My inspection is due this month... I'll let you know. Should be fine as long as there is no CEL

Mike - did you get a new M3? Looks like a jet black E92.

I don't think that's the Clubsport. The one in the link looks like their normal muffler. The Clubsport is their track muffler.

Hey just wondering how people take off the check engine light? I wanted to do something like this to get that sound but do not want the car not to pass the NY inspection. Also if you don't mind me askin what does it cost to do this exact set up on an E90 M3. Thanks
