Dixis or Gruppe M backbox????

[M5 Powered]

Talk about buses. Nothing then a few come along....

To Thorney,

If your system is lighter than the Akrapovic, I assume then it is made of titanium?

Also, any chance of seeing some pictures of one fitted to a car?

Shimmy, your pal at evolve sounds interesting too.


Best

Jonathan

[shimmy]

it will be interesting to see if any power or weight gains on both systems(if evolve ever do it)

i auite like the idea of a double centre exhaust for the CSL but i guess the cost of the diffuser is gonna put the prices sky high?

[Thorney]

No, still steel, wont use titanium due to potential to crack on race cars (not saying akra will crack but titanium race exhausts have a propensity to do so generally). The pictures willnexplain why it's so light, there is nothing to it really and cat is lighter. Rear diffuser is £400 but whole system including diffuser is over £1200 cheaper than akra I think, not worked out final price.

Haven't bidded on anything yet as i fancied the look of the Dixes :thumbs:

Back to the original thread :hahaha: All yours Bealo... I'm out of the bidding now that it's gone North of £800 :bigcry: plus probably too loud anyway :gayfight: for my desired CSL noise solutions.
Thank you please

Good luck Bealo - If your locale is anything like mine, I hope you keep the motor garaged matey...

The Pikeys in my neck of the woods would have that away in seconds if they knew it was made of titanium..:hahaha:

There's been 7 regular E46 M3 bumpers lifted within about 7 streets in the last couple of months....

Who the fook is buying them all ??

(Although there has been a sharp increase in sightings of Nova's with BMW bumpers and Impreza bonnet vents of late :hahaha

I know the guy who makes sals exhausts. I have a guy who does custom exhausts too. I am dropping some sections for him to start making for me.

Sports cats first then see how they do, then hopefully full systems.

I will be removing my back box soon, so I will weigh it, see how light it is.

I take it you are talking e46 here John and not your e9*?

It will be interesting to see. I toyed about with the centre exit system, losing weight from the back and running centre boxes to quieten it down,
I stopped experimenting when I was going to sell.

The only trouble I see is noise, it sounded awesome but too loud. Would have been a problem with the trackday posse.

Been measured at 98db at Donington, but will ship with a special extension to bring it down to 95db. I won't deny it's been made for performance and noise so it ain't quiet:thumbs:

driveby?

driveby?

98 static is not really loud loud so will be interesting to see if driveby or static

my SS race b/box is 96-98 static so must surely be driveby :smokin:

[glendog74]

My SS race back box + SS un-resonated centre section was 100dB at Spa.

I was usually 97dB like Shim without the SS centre section.
