Matt from OG picks up an E46 M3

lol. F1 engines sound nothing like an S54.

Check out the 0:39 and 1:33 mark actually sounds very similar to ours 😎

I didn't say it did

If you open our exh up with catless headers/airbox, and remove resonator(s), AND go over 8k RPM, you can hear the upshifts "pop" through the exhaust just like that v12

[yhp2009]

Tbonem3 At the mentioned time marks, that V12 buzzing from the "lower" rpms rising up to the 17k max i swear has an uncanny resemblance to ours.
But of course once that ferrari reaches the upper end of its rev range it just sings on another lvl

FYI, it's the H pipe in Sect 2 people are probably not liking.

Yeah, actually probably spot on. I have two H-pipes going with my CPI section 1.

But, Hassan said it's making some good power likely due to that. So I'm less inclined to change it up just yet.

[Tbonem3]

Nice, I always wondered about that. Good to know.

Now, do I have the weldor add an H crossover to my SS v1 sect 1 pipes when I have cats put in? Hmmm

Especially if I want to play around with an SS X pipe sect 2.

Are you having second thoughts about your current setup now because of Matt's comments?

Nah, definitely not. I embrace the rasp, the car sounds amazing from the outside especially. Driving around town under 3k RPM, not the best thing in the world but that's not a surprise.

[Tbonem3]

Car isn't meant to put around at 3k!

Not to tell people how to mod but my opinion is change the cpi's for ssv1's. I felt a very noticeable difference making that switch.

Motivation to always rip it! 👌👌

I prefer to compare it to a kazoo.

Oh geez I’m never going to be able to hear someone’s stock M3 and not hear a kazoo now. 🤣

[SandeepM3]

In the drive around video he did say he might just buy every exhaust he can get his hands on and do a comparison. I can say I'm down for that video at least lol

[Tbonem3]

Problem with that is, you only know how it sounds with those particular headers, sect 1, sect 2

Airbox also slightly changes the sound

But that's still a cool thing to do.

[Obioban]

It also won’t help the rasp, since the way to eliminate rasp is cats and resonators.
