no one makes exhausts for these cars, bar getting a custom one made, supersprint are about your only other option from standard.

Like any BMW exhaust the 318iS one is very good

custom job ey lol! just remember: dont go to powerflow

i saw an exhaust on ebay made by a german company called supersport, absolute masterpiece but a bit out of my price range, that was a twin pipe

the carnoissuer website use to do scorpion ones but the site doesnt work when you try and view there exhausts

another company that do one is sebring, but iv heard they are expensive

What ever you decide dont bother going to a custom place.

Supersprint, especially on cars newer than e30's, give dyno print outs vs cars fitted with stock exhausts. On alot of BMW's there are some very healthy gains.

The build quality, the fit and the gains are good and alot of M power users swear by them. They also sound only slightly louder than stock and whata noise they make. To me its a class product and thats why its on the Zone.
Notice how some big manufacturers arent even on the shop - Ive seen what they do to E30 performance figures.

Sebring - only heard good things but no idea of fit/build and any type of gains. Hesitant to sell.
