What a creative way to reveal an exhaust video! You had me in tune the entire time, loved this man!
Thank you my man! Just trying to be different!
This is a great alternative, although the best sounding G8x I’ve heard is SSR downpipe with Valvetronic exhaust. There’s some videos on here if you’re curious. Honestly sounds amazing!
Those Valvetronics are LOUD! Will probably get downpipes next!
70k+. $105-110k with decent specs
This sounds really good and very cost effective. I've read it wont throw a CEL since there's no sensors where the secondary's are. But a concern is getting the car serviced will they void the warranty.
How is the cabin noise?
This honestly depends on your dealer, but being honest most dealers will not dock you for this. They understand it is a performance car and that people want to extract more from. I'd suggest just checking with them first.
Good video, took your advice, removed all the same pieces, sounds great!! M4 manual poppin now, thanks!!
You paid $400 labor? 🤣😂
I did this exact same thing and my exhaust shop charged $175 for the EXACT same thing
TÜV says no
Does it still pass mass state inspection? Lol, I just picked up a 24' X3M Comp and was thinking about doing that as well.
I said the same exact thing about the G80 M3s exhaust when I first heard it..then I did a bit of research and found out why they are so muffled from factory. If you take a look at the EU’s emissions they keep getting more and more aggressive on high performance cars. Also too with the newer RS3 coming out it has the same exact problem. It sounds so muffled and restricted.
Awesome tip! I’m also in Mass and my g80 should be here by the end of July. I’ll check out Lou’s - they got one in Marlborough so hopefully they can do the same thing
My friend just got a g80 m3 and I’m tryna get him to do secondary cat deletes. He’s worried about warranty. Would the cat delete void warranty?
Bro you're a genius thank you!
Liked 👍 & sub's 💪
Thank you!
I removed the resonators only, and it sounds so fucking good.
Great video and breakdown of cost effective solution to making your M3 sound amazing. I am considering doing the same to my G80 when it arrives. At the end of the day you only really care how your M3 sounds and not what name is on the exhaust
Thank you man! Highly recommend it! Unless you want to buy a full system.
That’s what the c63s boys been doing for a while
WOW awesome difference
Yo Zay! Can’t get a shop to take my secondary cats out (I live in CA), what would you recommend? Im reading take both resonators and do an Xpipe where the second one sits.
Hey there my man! I think the option that would give you the most sound would be to simply delete the first resonator. I believe the secondary resonator is not a silencer of any kind and is an H-pipe that will help preserve the deeper exhaust note. Hope that helps!
Hey what’s up I know someone that will get that done for you where are you located?
do u need to tune the car for the catless downpipe?
Big difference way to go my man 🤘🏻💯
Great video, qq, Will it pass emissions? Is it worse for the environment?
Depending on where you are, you should not have a problem. This is not much worse than stock. The main catalytic converters are still on the vehicle. If you mod your exhaust with an aftermarket solution you will lose the secondary cats. The restrict sound so most companies do not keep them in their designs.
If you find one for 70k plus can you let me know?
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, Awesome video!
Thanks! 😃
you don’t need to be loud to be fast.. 🤷🏻♂️
More sound clips 😩
Yes sir!
Great car. One of the best BMW he made, but not the best M car or M3 they’ve ever made.
I've read and heard that the rear resonator is actually H-pipe, not X-pipe. Personally, I like the sound when both resonators are removed and replaced with x-pipe but the secondary cats are kept.
I did the exact same thing yesterday. My G82 sounds great! I just wonder how it would sound with both cats off lol
@@chrisvega6792 replacing the secondary cats will make it louder but also add some rasp to it. Same goes if you replace the downpipes.
Can u post that video I'd like to see the comparison
@@julianlee Here are couple videos with both resonators removed and replaced with X-pipe:
Can confirm the second resonator is an H pipe. I did a res delete on mine - straight piped the first and x piped the second. Sounds great!
Hey Zay, appreciate the video. I am gonna do this on my G82 M4, but just wanted a little bit more sound than stock. So you think it would still sound good to just remove 1 resonator? Do you know of any problems of just removing one? Thanks man
So if you’re going to remove anything I’d just remove the secondary catalytic converters. That will probably give you most sound with out adding too much rasp to the exhaust. You can remove the first resonator, but it might not be that much of a sound improvement. Shouldn’t be a problem no matter which route you choose. Hope that helps!
@@ZaysGarage That is great advice thanks man. How much do you think this would devalue a lease doing a mod like this? I know they say it is reversible though.
@@Okzander I don’t think it would devalue it much. I would be sure to keep your old exhaust bits and have them welded back on after the lease.
Great vid! Thanks for posting
Getting some jxmyhighroller vibes from the way you did this video, good job.
Thanks my man!
Hey bro I been looking to try and do this, I went to a shop locally and they told me it was “too complex” and they didn’t wanna mess it up, or have the check engine light on, so if you do it this way they’re no problems??
The secondary cats do not have any sensors in them nor do the resonators. Nothing to worry about.
what about drone noise? Driving longer distances. If you put the car into efficient, is it quiet like stock
I’ve used Lou’s in Brockton for years…good team down there 👌🏻
For sure! MassBMW recommended them for a reason!
That’s great! Thanks for sharing! One question, with the valve closed can it be quiet like stock? I love it loud but for the times my wife rides with me.
Looking to tint my truck with ceramic, so I wanted to ask how your experience was with the f80 after getting 3m ceramic, and if you have any tint on this current car
It was very good, never had any problems with the tint. Very high quality stuff!
Ey yo more content!
I'm still waiting for my g80 so you need to provide the goods in the mean time!
It is coming! Check out my latest videos!
Thank you sir.
Ill be sure to do this to my M3 when I get it.
can you please make a video on how you like the Rear Wheel drive verses the AWD.
I have a AWD STI and Tesla M3. But I noticed the M3 XDrive is AWD and automatic but the Base Model is Rear wheel drive and Manual(which I love) But I am torn between getting one over the other. I dont want an automatic, but I want the AWD
I’m not sure if it’s the camera or what, but it sounded like crap.
I would have kept the stock setup until I was ready to buy an actual exhaust
I'll be honest this doesn't sound too much different from the aftermarket options LOL
@@ZaysGarage
I mean, I could be completely wrong, I’m hearing it through camera audio, I wasn’t there🤷🏾♂️
bro how is the cold start? I got the same setup and cold start with valves wired open is brutal
We need ARM to make a set of resonated Downpipes for the G80 M3 that’ll be the only thing that saves the S58 just like it saved the S55
Great video man. So are your cats still there? Let me check you deleted the secondary cats but not the rear resonated xpipe and the backbox/muffler is the same?
How did you solve the faultcodes by removing the cats?
Upgrade to single turbo. Problem solved.
I liked and subscribed
Thank you sir!
Still sounds better than the S55 tho. I actually like the sound
Did you get a CEL for chopping the cats?
What a chill guy, thank you for sharing ur knowledge 🫶🏻
The s58 doesn't sound muted, it sounds like shit lol. I have a G80 competition. Love the car. Love the way it drives. However it sounds like complete ass. Although i'm a bit biased because i come from corvettes. But if this car sounded like an M340, seriously, i would've been much happier lol
Well modding the exhausts helps a little haha - once they have a single turbo kit for these we can solve the root problem!
Any check engine lights after you cut those cats out?
G8x most annoying problem is the horrible brake squeal
I think any cars that have drilled rotors are going to have a break squeal unfortunately. :(
@@ZaysGarage i replaced my brake pads and no squeal!
@@FLManGarage oh cool which ones?
@@ZaysGarage ebc yellow stuff
It's a H pipe in there not X.
Sounds almost identical to the psi mid pipe I heard in person which is great. Just wondering if it drones though?
No drone at all!
Awesome video brother you just gained a new subscriber!
Welcome aboard!
@@ZaysGarage Hit me up if you ever come out to FL and we can do a collab video.
Sounds amazing. Does this void the warranty?
Its a grey area
Went into my dealer this past month and they didn’t care. I would ask first though before doing it.
does it affect your warranty? What if you are leasing this car? If they find out ( which they will when doing an oil change) they will force you to buy the car, right?
Depends on the dealer, but most M shops are lenient because they understand this is a performance car. If you are leasing I'd go with a bolton solution from Active Autowerke or PSI.
@@ZaysGarage They dumb. Only the Main cats have sensors the car cannot tell these other two are there.
So many meat heads concern themselves with sound. Porsche anyone?
You are stating the obvious and you tell it how it is. You got me to subscribed..
definitely helped with volume but its still the worse sounding performance 6 cylinder on the market.
Yeah, us Bimmer guys have to own that its not the best by far
@@ZaysGarage Its not a BMW problem, its M3/m4 problem. The B58 sounds amazing and the V8 M motors sound good.
F8X and G8X sounds like farts! sorry
The G8x is bit better! 😂
Won't this void your warranty? This is a great video, but I wonder why someone would modify their M3 if it's not going on a track.
The only problem with the car is that awful front end. There is no saving that😅
Bmws have always sounded like shit from top to bottom . Idk if I would mod something just for the sound. When i’m going 100 around a corner…. I doubt I would care. I had a manual mazda protege growing up with an intake an exhaust(bought it like that) ….. seriously sounded awesome but it was slow as hell. Beamers idle sound is always terrible too…. Sounds like the cars breaking . My old ones were probably but I also owned two from new 😂.
A solution for that hideous grille, that would have been something. Seriously though you would think after the “F” series BMW would have rectified the sound issue but instead redesigned the auto. This is the path they’ve been heading for quite sometime. Nice clip, and yes it does sound somewhat better at a minimal cost👍
Regardless of the performance it’s hands down the ugliest BMW ever created.
It’s not that bad! Haha
@@ZaysGarage it’s that bad
@@ZaysGaragehell nah don’t listen to them
