[k]

what make of full system ss exhaust would members recommend for 1989 325i sport ,have had scorpion in the past ,sounded good , but a bit pricy ,mongoose is another option.......any thoughts/experience and where to get best deal........or has anyone got one that they want to sell

Avoid Mongoose - won;t fit and sounds terrible.
Scorpion is ok but won;t last long. can get very loud aswell.

Sebring are much better than the above - you can find details on the Zone Shop about these.

Expect to pay around Ԛ£450 for a decent exhaust.

what do you mean about scorpion not lasting long? theyre lifetime warranty anyway. i've had mine years and i'd love a shiny new one!

well, this is gonna be an unpopular statement, but its my own point of view - scorpion sound shite, have shinney tail pipes and that is all they have going. they sound even worse after a year or 2, are made of cheese (lightweight thin material, and if theres so much as a scratch on the underside, scorpion will tell you to fuk-off as its been "abused or mistreated" or "the exhaust system has experienced forces outside the normal operating parameters it is expected to experience" as my mate found out when he caugfht 1 very large speed bump and the baffles went. scorpion basically told him to piss off. we opened it up and the baffles hadnt even been spot-welded down. monkeys!

oh, and scorpion isnt pricey. its reasonably cheap. sebring, larini, Eisenmann are more expensive.

Eisenmann sound like nothing else. You'll need a deep wallet.
