Personal preference, i do like the Scorpion exhausts, sound really good on the E30 :cool: A couple for sale in the 'For Sale Section' :)

The performance gains from aftermarket systems are minimal over the stock BMW system, only when combined with a decent 6 branch manifold would you see gains of perhaps 10-15bhp, so for a lot of the time it is just about getting more sound.

Scoprions are quite a deep and hollow sound and they really wail, maybe a bit loud on a cab.

Perhaps worth getting along to a meet and listening to other systems?
