What do you think about the overall sound vs. an actual cat back?

I should have mine done tonight and with a catless downpipe installed. Only other difference is I'm missing 2 cylinders so hopefully it still sounds good. I'll post a sound clip within the next couple of days.

Mine sounds just like that without the turbo spool. Great job man. What do you think of it? Definitely saved you some cash.

Thanks for all the info this dd1981, I'm gonna give this a try here in Italy. I'm USAF stationed out here and its a pain in the ass getting stuff sent here (like big exhaust boxes) so this is the next best thing which really doesn't sound to bad at all. Quick question do you by any chance have a part number or anything of the exhaust clamp/coupler you used? Thanks.

You can always call a BMW dealer in Germany and Im sure they can accomodate a freight box to Italy. Its not that far. But yeah give it a go. Im glad more people tried it and seem to be very very happy with the sound.

Yup, here you go. N20 with aFe downpipe and modded 335i muffler, light/moderate revs to 3k and 4k RPM, warm start (didn't want to annoy the neighbors too much). The 2nd video is prior to the muffler mod (colx start).

It sounded great with just the stock 335 muffler mod, but then it just transformed into a whole different animal after you sealed the tubes. Exactly how mine took shape, went from a nice stock sound to a great note and every rev has endless burbles and the overrun louder and meaner. Sounds great man. ![]() ![]()
