Another S52 swap... but this time with a newb!

High temp engine paint clear coat. All that I could get my hands on. Rather than letting it bake, I just let the car idle for 10 mins.

Exhaust looks good! I like how you brought the tips close together so they'd exit the valance next together.

[DaveSmed]

What kind of Clearcoat?

[jahnaboi]

Pulled off my muffler, semi polished it and clear coated it. Here's the custom catback made by DMS and I.

/\ Rain? you dont know about rain lol.

[jahnaboi]

Lol. When it stops raining! Plus, I'm changing my oil now with expensive stuff so I'll feel better when I stomp on the gas peddle. =P

When do we get so see a vid of it moving?:D

[jahnaboi]

Also, don't understand why you got attitude when your question was already answered in my original update.

"with a custom dual 2 1/4" piping to 3 inch tips."

[jahnaboi]

Maybe answer my simple question rather then getting defensive, huh?

I wasn't being defensive in any way. Sorry if it seems like I went around the question but yes, it is dual 2.25" piping from the flange that meets with the e36 midpipes to the can and dual 3" tips from the other side of the can. Plus, I was just merely saying that the camera distorts the actual grunt of the exhaust. I wasn't being defensive.

Sounds good Jasper! You put the camera a little too close though, the mic isn't picking the sound out well. We need to meet up and have some fun with our two very similar cars. :woowoo:

Ha. Yea, I put it too close. I didn't want to put it farther out as I didn't feel like walking much hahaha. Seriously, pm me your number and whenever my friends and I are having a cruise or something I'll hit you up.

Well I have updated this thread in a while. Since my last post, I've done obd2 midpipes with a custom dual 2 1/4" piping to 3 inch tips. Here's a brief sound clip. (Don't mind the condensation, its 37 degrees and my catalytic converters are doing their job =P ). haha

Its uploading.

Here you guys go.

The Catback was custom made by DMS and myself and is a direct bolt on to the e36 midpipes (obd1 or obd2).

EDIT: that was only 5.5k rpm revs... to early and loud for neighbors.

The camera distorts most of the actual grunt. I like the sound quite well. If you came to bimmerfest you could hear it in person. Hah.
