Anyone know how this sound compares to the M Performance Exhaust sound? Is it louder or similar?

Almost similar....the M Performance exhaust sound's more hollow typical for titanium & inconel !

Thanks for the video. My turn to attempt!!!!

SMG M3 · 02-24-2013, 08:41 PM

thinking of trying this! Need to hear it in person first. Will the dealership harass for doing this mod? (under warranty for next 3 yrs)

K.M. Tim · 03-20-2013, 12:44 PM

Got an extra OEM exhaust. I just need to tools to do the rest and the solid pipes. Plan to heat paint can flat black and reinstall. Finding the tools is always the issue if you want to do yourself.

1LRM3 · 05-11-2013, 03:42 PM

very nice write up on a cheap way to get some music to the ears!

Dominic_M · 05-13-2013, 10:56 AM

This is a very easy mod for cheap.. I have a stock exhaust for 150 in the Atlanta GA area.. PM for an offer if in the area.. Will not ship, pickup only.

zed512 · 06-14-2013, 03:44 PM

Anybody in Austin Texas that can do this mod?

Boxed · 06-14-2013, 05:05 PM

Since you DIY your mod. did you go ahead and change out the muffler tips? I'm trying to source some pipes to do my tips.

But i think...this is what you want and i hope this will help you v v v

I see you stated that you used a Mig welder for the box. Is box made from aluminum, austenitic stainless...? i can't seem to get a magnet to stick and would like to give the mod a shot, but want to make sure I am using the correct wire.

The muffler is stainless steel and double walled,the stainless full pipes inside the muffler have a diameter from 63.5 mm >>> 2.5 inch !
Watch the video again on page 1,than you will have no surprises when you start with the mod.

Shook77 · 08-19-2013, 04:16 PM

Perfect! Thank you for the quick reply and Excellent write up! Can't wait to get started!

pkimM3r · 08-19-2013, 04:34 PM

instead of cutting through when doing mine - we lasered it with a light saber.....it took 3 seconds LOL.

gazosnic · 11-20-2013, 07:08 PM

This may be really dumb idea... but any thoughts to using something to cover up all the perforated holes instead of hack it out and replacing. Something similar to warping with metal tape?

I will just be honest, I think it sounds like ..no good.. (staying politically correct, but you can guess the word). Again everyone is entitled to expressing their opinion. I have yet to hear an after market exhaust that sounds decent. Most sound either bad, real bad, or horrible. The MPE and Gintanni full pipes are the only one mediocre but acceptable.
