Hey guys,

Great site you've got here, all the information I could want!

I've just bought a beauty of a 325i. Alpine White 4 door, good condition all round and runs superbly. 2 owners, the second an old lady thats had it since 1991! Full history, not main dealer but specialist, and 89k on the clock. I had been looking for one for a while, not quite the spec i wanted but was on a budget so couldn't be too fussy. I was lucky enough to pick this up at my work as it was traded in.
I'm planning to subtly modify it with stiffer suspension and a few performance enhancements. Hopefully i'll take it to the track.
Anyways, the first thing i need is an exhaust as the backbox is screwed, a good excuse to get an upgraded system. I'm leaning towards a mongoose but does anyone have any other recommendations?

Thanks in advance

Max

Welcome to the zone mate!!

Get some pics on here asap!!!

IMO, was never convinced by loud exhausts as thought they don't always sound great and can ruin the 6 pot noise. Heard a 320 with a scorpion back box on it and thought it sounded ok though!

What ever happened to Janspeed?
