Did y'all install an aftermarket exhaust?
Did any of y'all install an aftermarket exhaust. I seriously think it's must to have a good exhaust on the M3. Heck even the M5 sounded terrible with the stock exhaust.

Depending on the tone you want to achieve there are a few good options, now being surrounded by a lot of people who has different aftermarket exhaust here (on a regular basis), I have pretty much heard all of the more popular set up (AWE Res and Non-Res, Remus, FI, Armytrix, MPE, Akra (catback vs axle), Dinan, AA+Dinan, AA Full, AA+Stock. What kind of a racket are you looking to make?

I have the MPE on my ZCP M3. It's a great exhaust if you can get past the price tag.

I have the MPE as well, and I love it for what it is! It sometimes sounds too similar to the "fartcan" sound sometimes, however. It's not enough to make me want to switch exhausts after spending so much on the MPE, but I am curious what exhausts that pass smog sound like. Is the rattle sound inherit of the S55? Another thing I love about it is that it doesn't have the brain splitting drone that I have experienced in other modified cars. I really can't stand it. The MPE is just loud enough at cruising speeds to be exciting without being annoying.

Under what conditions do you notice the MPE sounding similar to a fartcan? In hindsight, knowing what you know now, would you keep your $5K+ or would you still get the MPE?

I agree with an upgraded exhaust being a must on this car .. Our most popular options are Active & REMUS

The best sounding exhaust will vary between each individual. You have to hear them in person, some are raspier than others, more high pitched, bassier, the list goes on. I have had AWE resonated and now have Remus. Each one sounds good in its own right but I heard them before buying them.

Akra Evo + Akra DP's here.
Interior clip before it was broken in: It sounds a lot less raspy and deeper now. I will make another clip sometime after the winter passes. |
