WTB Exhaust Manifold/header

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
Long story short, my driver's side exhaust manifold is warped. If anyone's got the OEM driver's side manifold, or any pair of aftermarket/custom headers for e92 M3 coupe, let me know. Limited time span on this before I just order OEM from Germany

How did it warp? Too much boost?

Schmeidman sells aftermarket headers for $1400 a pair. I would give them a try if I had way more airflow than stock.

You can typically plane warped headers flat. Probably cost $75 at the machine shop if you do the removal and take it there and do the reinstall. Use new gaskets. You will probably also need all new studs and bolts assuming they are locking style and hard to dissassemble like most header bolts.

Haha I wish it was something that cool. Nope, when I still had cats on the car, I dragged one coming out of a parking garage in SC
