Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to the test drive video too 🚘

Sure thing!

I agree it is like a musical instrument. I have a 135i. I had the pleasure to have had a Dinan exhaust. Now I am trying a company named Berk. I even did the midpipes from them. Every time I try a different part, the exhaust note will change and get deeper. I want to try this pipe too. They have it for the 128i/135i. This pipe is very affordable compared to other brands. Thanks for sharing install.

That's cool, I've been wanting to buy a 135 for a number of years now... I imagine that 135i being a turbo engine, sounds different with the similar changes to the piping. Thinking about updating midpipes - to get rid of secondary cats. Or I should just move on to N55 or B58.

[@robertpurvis6106]

@@maxsam201 True the turbo makes everything different. There are noticeable differences between the n54 and n55 tones in the 135i. Popular upgrade for n54 135i is to swap mids. the n55 mids don't have secondary cats. people with n55 will take out resonator and put a y pipe. If you have catless the resonator helps with rasp. Some changes make turbo sound louder. I tried catless for 2 months and it was great but the smell got to me so I went with a race cat. I got my n55 6 yrs ago used so It was affordable. Now the b58 is affordable. I would look for a F series if I started over. Only thing I don't like is the steering is electronic instead of hydraulic. B58 can make more power than N55 and probably sounds better.

[@maxsam201]

Cool stuff. I tried the new Supra / Z4 and that car has got power even in stock shape. B58 is probably the way to move forward, but at this point I'm not really sure what to do next.

[@robertpurvis6106]

@@maxsam201 yes b58. n55 is too old. it was good enough for me 6 yrs ago but today i would do s55 or b58.

Is there on that’s not supposed to go inside of each other before you put the clips on it to seal it

[@maxsam201]

Are you talking about exhaust clamps?

[@pedromiron2206]

how did you take off the stock exhaust?

[@maxsam201]

2 flanges 4 bolts at the downpipes, that is the only place where it disconnects. Cutting works too haha.

how is the droning while driving?

[@maxsam201]

There is no droning!

[@oyurcha1]

You are right, the hardware quality is just garbage.

[@maxsam201]

@oyurcha1 That's how it is, usually, these are driven by the cost of the final product. E9x (especially N52 powered cars) is a low budget car at this point, only M3 still has some value, people are not spending money on expensive "upgrades".
