Oh, yeah, I had to stick with the burnt tips, and yes, it is an eBay exhaust, but the company that makes it has a good following in the Lotus community (Topspeed), and the exhaust looks tits!
Here’s the closest thing to a sound clip on an M50 variant motor like mine (E90 330i)
Mine will sound considerably different though, so that vid is pointless.
Ebay :nono
Should be sweet though mang!
Nothing wrong with eBay, it’s 2.25" 304 16 gauge stainless tig welded by a robot, and it’s a straight thru muffler, not much to wear out.
and like I said, this same company makes $800 exhausts for Lotuses (sp? lotusii? lulz), and this one ain’t cheap compared to other ebay options.
car is hot! was this for sale on CL?
Yeah the ad’s still up too :rofl
by CL do you mean Clublexus cause i live on there and never saw the ad.
And what are you doing on clublexus anyway.
I vote your new exhaust to be cool. my opinion is all that matters
Join the burnt tip club. It makes you cooler
I’m already in the burnt tip club, new one’s just MO4R burnt.
god I hope it sounds good though.
its a BMW should sound fine. I bet it sounds the same as that remus you have.
The remus is heavily baffled, the new one is a straight through design with different materials, and larger piping.
Should be much louder, I hope!
my friend had what I thought was a remus on his car but its deinitely straight through. IDK the piping size though. His is a 325 E36body style and it sounds fine.
Very little drone on highway. Good sound at wide open throttle.
and his car is pretty beat
Yeah I can’t even hear my current one over my intake at WOT, only hear it reverberating off of buildings at low load/low rpm.
For anyone interested, I have a AA trackpipe/Gen 3 cat-back for any E36 6-cyl for sale. $950 to the locals.
you told me $1k :shifty
as far as I’m concerned you now owe me $50, I accept cashiers check and money order only.
I know how you bimmer guys are with personal checks :nono
