my weekend e30 project

[OreoGaborio]

i finally started working on the 325i exhaust swap on my Eta. took me pretty much all day to get the old exhaust off & the "new" (to me) one prepped for install, however "all day" included alot of goof off time, errand runs, lunch etc. all i have left to do tomorrow is get a new 02 sensor (autozone didn't friggin have one), sand & paint the muffler, drill out a hole in one of the exhuast flanges & bolt it all up.

[OreoGaborio]

nah... no camera, no pics

gonna go get started on this bitch now.... and it better not friggin rain :evil:

crap & i still need an o2 sensor

[OreoGaborio]

well... of course it's raining.... guess i'm not gonna paint the muffler.... oh well, no biggie.

at lesat i drilled out that damn flange & it only ate up practically all of my drill bits ;)

anyone got an o2 sensor? maybe i'll just plug up the hole w/ a spark plug in the mean time 8)

100% complete. my Eta has dual exhaust :up:

i took my sweet ass time & had some serious issues to sort out :evil:

Yes, tell us now! ;)

well... it's definitely alot quieter than my blown Eta exhaust that completely disconnected itself right at the bottom of the downpipes at that Y joint 8)

sounds a little deeper than the stock eta exhaust as well... as for performance, i can't really tell since i still have about 150 lbs of tools, ramps & jackstands in my trunk ;)
