M20B25 - Exhaust System

Post Mon Sep 02, 2013 6:29 pm

I've just bought an e30 with the angled tail pipes which I don't like, so thought I might as well upgrade while I'm changing it.

Can anyone recommend a system they've had experience with - I've heard good things about supersprint?

Nothing loud though please as it's a track car.

Thanks.

Which exhausts are best for loudest ?

How does the sound of Original BMW exhaust sound like

Original is pleasingly fruity, and louder than modern stuff - but not loud.

I have a genuine standard exhaust on my C2, fits perfectly sounds nice too, it'll be fine a normal 325i but for the Alpina it's just not got the soundtrack, i've bitten the bullet and having a longlife made for it next thursday, so my 6 month old 2 piece genuine system will be up for sale soon, not cheap mind you!!

I had a full stainless made by a company in nottingham for my sport who made a perfect copy of the original but sound wise a little bit louder than standard as they even build there own boxes.Not cheap at around 850 quid but workmanship was brillant look at webpage at www.stainless-exhaust.com

We need to talk!!! I may be interested in a system for my C2 lump at that money.

£400 is pretty good value! I've emailed them for a quote

I plan on changing the engine at some point in the future for m52, will these exhausts fit or would I need to swap again?
