    Can I use my stock e30 exhaust with my M50 Swap?

    As the title states I would like to use my stock e30 exhaust with my m50 swap. Will there be any restrictions or issues?

    That is what I have done with all of my swaps. Provides the best ground clearance without custom pipes.

      Random thought, how do you mate the piping between the exhaust and the swap header? and/or which swap header would you use?

        The exhaust manifolds may not line up so well.

          look for my swap post (too lazy to do it for you) outlines how I did it on mine.

          fairly easy, ebay headers, 20 bucks in cheap reducers, and the stock pipes.

          works great and is cheap as hell to make
