E36 M3 Supersprint RHD Manifolds + Exhaust - Install + Dyno Testing

Supersprint are known for making some of the best exhaust systems on the market. We visited them a few years ago in Italy for F90 M5 development and since then our video guy Matt has wanted to get their exhaust system on his E36 M3 Evo.
We decided to not only change the exhaust but also the manifold for their RHD specific replacement. This would let us get it on the dyno before/after and see if the clever guys at Supersprint have extracted any more power out of the 3.2L Straight Six S50B32 engine!

[@didjeridu100]

Nice setup! Looks and sounds supersprint! Not that anyone asked, but for some reason I've always loved the original E36 M3 exhaust manifold... which is why my setup for my last two E36's has been the original OEM E36 M3 exhaust manifold, SuperSprint "H-Pipe" M3 Front Exhaust and SuperSprint M3 Rear Exhaust w. DTM tips. Kudos to your mechanic for making that exhaust manifold swap look easy :-) Had mine swapped on two E36's and there's not much space there.

[@duck748r]

NA all the way!

[@placeholdername3206]

Get some resonators in there, it is going to sound even better, trust me. I'm suprised you didn't get *even more rasp* considering you have no cats or resonators. Usually when you mess with the mid pipe all M50 based motors are going to sound horrible. This isn't that bad, but seriously get some Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonators welded in there. It's not going to mess with the volume, it's just going to filter out some of the tinnyness and harshness.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

The rear box was quite beefy so removed a lot of it. I’ve since crashed this car and am rebuilding it as an M3 Touring, and that will be getting a resonated centre section and race rear box, to see how that changes things.

On the S50 engine of my z3m roadster (Eur specs), I clearly lost power when I did fit the supersprint manifold. 80 to 120km/h in 5th gear took me 0,5s more... Bigger section not always mean better combustion.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

That’s odd, goes against our findings here!

[@ayrtonsenna6750]

@@EvolveAutomotive, one point to take into consideration is I compared OEM manifold versus Supersprint one only. You had a non OEM exhaust pipe and replaced the whole exhaust line if I'm correct.

[@JerainJezza]

It's best to have a tune that goes with the new headers! Or else there maybe must be a small thing wrong with O2 sensors or plugs and coils at the end of their life perhaps...?

[@ayrtonsenna6750]

JerainJezza , or like I said, maybe just the headers is not a good change. These engines (at least the S50) are already almost developping 100hp/L, I have strong doubts you can easily gain without a full review of both intake and exhaust. And then I just shared my experience as I have reservations towards bench results.

That’s exactly the Supersprint setup I had on my Avus Blau E36 M3. Best sound, best power. These headers really need to be matched with more aggressive Shriek cams. Wish I hadn’t sold my E36 M3. As we get older, we learn to see beauty in previous gen M3s

[@EoinK821]

Hi Imran , I have an Evolve tune on my 2007 E63 M6 , I also have a '98 E36 M3 EVO 2 with 34 thousand miles on it and it's like new.I dyno'd my M3 10 years ago and it made just over 317bhp but torque was spot on at 258ft/lb's.I also have a 2018 F80 M3 Competition that is standard but watch in interest what you have achieved so far in your own F80. Yes please do a detailed test drive of the E36.If you could get your hands on an E63 M6 that would be fab too after all it is the S85 that is revving at the start of your videos ! Older cars such as an E30 325i and E21 323i would be awesome to watch on a test drive too. I know possibly a difficult task to get hold of but an Alpina C2 2.7 and a Harge version of the E30 would be incredible to watch with your connections though you might be able to source cars like that.Another rare beast a Hartge H50 E90 with the S85 V10. Here is a car that might prove to be the most difficult one to source but wow what a video it would make the Racing Dynamics K55 E36 Compact fitted with the M70B50 V12. Just my thoughts on future video content keep up the good work , cheers, Eoin.

[@psavel274]

Wish I was overseas and not in the states so I could have all the great euro motors and ITB'S galore. The x-pipe makes a good difference in scavenging effect. Those are the good manifold studs with the e-torx head. Good move. The ports in the stock manifold might also be for a gas analyzer. Not alot of shops use them anymore and most are in the corner collecting dust. Clean e36. Supersprint makes a good product. I used to have the supersprint trackpipe on my e36 with an otherwise full custom mandrel bent exhaust. I was happy with the results. I've installed a good amount of they're products on various customers cars over the years, and I have yet to have a customer compliant of any sort. Good video. Digging the powerflex LCAB's and aluminum steering shaft guibo as well. Keep it real👍

[@jonathanmoga5188]

Dont overlook the us spec because of silly internet bs by none owners.

[@boris9331]

The ports on the S50B32 Euro exhaust manifold are for part of doing a calibration procedure using the GT1 tool, if you know M cars well, you know this.

No need to be jealous.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

US definitely got the raw end of the deal

[@idokwatcher2062]

Dude it's legal to swap engines there. Count your blessings. Imagine being stuck with a 323 or 325 and government forbids you to swap a powerful engine in it which is something you can afford. They say if you want faster car you must buy a faster car but there is double taxation on motor vehicles so they get 40% of it, and it's something you will never ever be able to afford.

[@realbadtech9318]

@@idokwatcher2062 that's a really solid point actually. From what I can tell in Europe (not sure which countries or all of them?) you really can't do the types of modifications we get away with here. De-catting your car, throwing a bunch of mods on and tuning it is no big deal here. Some of it is illegal due to emissions but a lot of guys are able to get around it easily enough depending on what platform you're working with. My US E36 M3 doesn't have crazy mods, it's got the early M50 intake manifold which is a common mod here, plus tune, exhaust, suspension. But fortunately because it's over 20 years old in my state I don't have to get it inspected or anything, you just buy it, register it really cheaply as "historic" and you're good to go. Not sure what you mean by double taxation, but we've got that here too. Every time a vehicle changes hands its taxed again to register it under a new owner. So if a car has 8 owners, it's been taxed 8 times.

[@ModMINI]

I just got a euro spec e36 (originally sold in Mexico) ... and the same exhaust in this video but how am I supposed to mate up the two back sections? The flanges make no sense.

[@boris9331]

A back to back test by fitting supersprint manifolds only not changing whole exhaust will show what the headers can do.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

The exhaust itself would be a marginal gain, I can guarantee you most if not all of this is coming from the headers.

[@kennethdecuyper]

Nice mods, i know this video is already several years old. But i wamned to ask wich tune did you use for the car, is it possible to remap the srock ecu? I have an eisenmann rear and am now putting the supersprint de-cat pipe on it . The headers are a little too expensive for the moment. Great gains and lovely sound❤

Im currently using a supersprint race backbox with x pipe and OEM headers on my 3.2 (bought like this) and i find the sound too loud and intrusive and feel that if it was tamer I would drive the car a lot more! Do you think a SS sport back box is a lot tamer compared to the race backbox even when paired to the x pipe or is a resonated pipe also needed? Cheers Edit: i also have the full oem system which can be used (i want the car to be tamer but not a boring soul when driving)

[@EvolveAutomotive]

This setup was fairly good sound wise, not being too loud/droney. You could try either sport rear box or resonated x-pipe. I actually crashed this car and since have replaced the exhaust with resonated x-pipe and race rear, to get a little more noise and see how different it sounds.
