Finally got a clip up on my youtube channel. S54 E30 with headers, to 3 inch Cat, Resonator and Vibrant rear muffler.

More s54 Content coming when it gets a bit warmer.

Liking the videos. You’re right about the sound. It sounds like a well running e30, but not an s54 swap.

[BMW_TUNER]

Yeah, the thing that doesn't come through is the bass note in the exhaust. You can feel it in your chest. I should actually do a comparison video as I do have an M20 car too. The resonator and the vibrant muffler combined with merging the exhaust right behind the headers mellows it a lot. I have been thinking about installing an electronic cutout what do you guys think?

^ I was thinking of doing a cutout as well for fun at the track or to scare the Priuses, but in reality I don't like pissing off people on the streets and I loathe drone.

However you could do a cutout in just one muffler tip if you had a double exhaust instead of the single.

[BeirBrennerE30]

that sounds really good. One of the better ones I have heard.

Do your taillights flash with your door open?

[BMW_TUNER]

Thanks I like the way it sounds. Hopefully I will get some rolling audio soon. Yeah the lights flash when I open the doors it’s an old alarm system that wired into the lights.

Sounds great.

I've always hated how raspy s54 systems can be, but this doesn't seem to have any!

Now, give us a video of you bouncing off the r3v limiter @ 8250 lol

What exhaust is that it sounds great. Mine is quiet, I wanted it that way to be more sleeper but I may change down the road.

[BMW_TUNER]

My exhaust is a set of long tube headers that used to be sold as they are knockoffs of some other long tube merged right after the end of the header then into a 3 inch exhaust 3 inch race catalytic and then 3 inch vibrant short resonator and into the 3 inch vintage t back box.

I will try to get shots when the car goes to the dyno.

Also is their any interest in a air box solution for the S54 swap?

What do you mean by airbox solution:) . Listening.

[BMW_TUNER]

I am thinking of designing a new base to work with the factory upper.

I would be interested in seeing what you are making. I basically removed the factory bottom (well cut it up).
