So knowing that I am replacing my exhaust in February, I was wondering if anyone had some advice.

1986 325i Cabby...

I am looking into fitting a full scorpion system but noticed that the post 88' is half the price of the pre 88' system, why?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks



:D

jetex used to do a nice system for the early cars at a reasonable price. Scorpion are crap and tend to fail internally.

I put a eberspacher rear exhaust on this summer.. Very pleased with it. There were two options I went for the dearer one... You get what you pay for.

Because the earlier system is a 3 piece system and the later one a two piece.

Yeah I can dig up the invoice later with the part number. However, my exhaust is a two part exhaust do you know what yours is?

From reading the post in this thread I assume yours is a three part.
