As above,
I have the Danthe manifolds ready to fit, just want to attach them to a decent exhaust system to get the best out of the car. I have M52, M50 inlet and BBTB already. Will be getting the Danthe ECU remap once the exhaust is done.
What is the best system and what are you all using? Should I get something custom made and if so, by who?
Thanks

What a nightmare trying to find a decent system
I have spent the last 3 weeks trying to find a good system.
BMW wanted over £1200 for a genuine Boysen.
I personally don't like any custom after market exhaust. Just drains the engine note.
I finally went to ECP and spoke to matt(meatballs on here) and bought several different parts for a 3 piece which didn't fit.
Then finally bought a Eberpacher rear section which is a premium bmw OE exhaust which is part of the two piece system and a really good pattern part of the front section
Total came to £320 which is cheap considering

I cut a length off the M52 downpipes, and had that mated to an E30 M3 exhaust system. Given how the garage finished the job, I now have a DanThe M3 flange as well as genuine BMW gaskets available if anyone's interested.

I'm using Dan's manifolds with a M3 flange that needs to be welded on, e30 M3 middle section and Scorpion rear box. I've not fitted the lot yet but may get there over the next couple of weeks.
