New X-Pipe Exhaust for my BMW e46 328i Stroker

www.youtube.co...
Today we are repairing and upgrading the exhaust sistem
because I have some small holes on it and its quite nasty when i drive it because of all the gases that enters the cockpit and since I decided to check the exhaust that requires to uninstall it completely from the car and that is a good opportunity to upgrade it!
The upgrade is a custom x pipe and removing a small middle muffler that has some rust and I think by removing it and in combination with the x-pipe I will obtain a more pleasant sound.

That sounds much nicer than stock. Nice job! Would be really interesting to hear it with a different muffler.

What do you mean with “stroker” never understood that term

[@s4ms0n1t3]

Different length rods so it changes thr stroke of the engine, makes the displacement higher and increase torque but lowers RPM

I did not understand from the video are you after the exhaust meat, the explosion whip looked in it or the ghit, the whip of the explosions in the exhaust after the welding, I want to understand them ؟

[@bimmerrestorations]

X pipe should be further in the back not right after manifolds....And what the hell it's an straight 6 man its pointless

[@bimmerrestorations]

@@blase9090 I didn’t do it for any performance, i did it for an experiment to see if it has a diferent sound and trust me, it’s a difference

@@bimmerrestorations Ok i see.Try to move x pipe further back it will sound better
