Not a fan of the crackles, but man that tone is *perfect* .That's a proper Need for Speed racecar sound.

[@Ayixlia]

The very best sound you can get out of an E46 is with the stock steel muffler with an CA intake. Get the mid muffler deleted and it will sound like a BMW straight 6 should be.

Just did the m50 on my 325ci with everything along with stage 4 from revmatch. For what its worth just leave the m54 manifold or go m54b30

[@arctica5193]

If your plan was not completed yet, go for an M54b30 intake... It is the same engine type, so fitting will save you a lot of headaches.

You can install them on the 328 and the 323. NOT the 325, that is the M54

Not sure what you mean. The headers will work for both but you may have to cut the flanges and rewelded on your factory exhaust. Most headers on the market however are meant for the m54

Just do a similar exhaust set up like I have. Headers with an aftermarket muffler. However your exhaust will smell very bad if it’s not tuned. The company I bought from has an option for no pops.

[@GiancarloDiamond]

do you need silencer to stop those annoying pops and bangs?... as i want to change whole exhaust system with new headers and sport muffler

[@garbinsgarage]

No. I only have the pops and bangs because it’s of my tune which they can be switched on and off. You can do exactly what I did with headers and muffler but no tune. The exhaust smells really really bad with no cats though. After it was tuned the air fuel ratio was let Rich so it doesn’t smell bad anymore

[@krystofbartosek3730]

Does thease pops ans bangs and hardcut rev limmiter demage engine or its safe, i have heard that it is not good for valves, head, cams, but modern car shoot from exhaust too like m3, i30n .ty for answer

[@garbinsgarage]

It’s all understanding of what is happening. Ignition timing is retarded until the exhaust valve is open. This was my old time and I run a different one now. It can be turned on and off. Doing this excessively isn’t exactly harmful but can put extra heat on the exhaust valves which over time may weaken the valve seal causing oil burning. The hard cut limiter is better for the engine then a fuel cut limiter but it’s set to a higher rpm. So it’s just revving the engine higher then factory

[@sebyouthere]

I have a 330 with theire stage 2 tune as well similar setup but automatic and it seems that your first pull in 2nd gear accelerated and reved out much faster than mines does? Weird or does that make sense I'm confused haha... prolly just the diff/trans gearing but idk

[@VirtuaL7-7-7]

Hi, what with lambda sondes ? i think about ebay headers in my 328ci.

It’s all about the flanges. I just know that blackhorse racing bolt up with no flange modifications. Most headers are made for the 325/330. These will bolt the engine on a 328 but they won’t line up with the rest of the exhaust without modifications

If you get one go for the stage 3 and yes there quite a difference but mainly the throttle response and manipulation. Throttle blips closed making downshifting super smooth and much more rev happy with less throttle input. Stage 2 is almost identical but no flames, launch control, and a few other parameters. Also definitely do spaced pops and not fast. Mine were fast and then when I got stage 3 they were spaced. Check out my more recent exhaust video
