eBay Headers Install on my E46 Drift Wagon (Before & After Audio)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- I removed the cats and installed some eBay headers on my e46! I thought I would have a bunch of fitment issues and that I'd have to modify a bunch but I got extremely lucky and the install was 100% bolt in with no modifications!!

when it's your day off and you got chinese food in front of you, and you see Joel post... you know it's a good day
Real
Absolutely
same here but with mcdonalds lmao
Air fried pizza puff go crazy
What a fucking mood dude honestly
Sharp clean camerawork and editing. And it sounds really, really good!
i like all the lights at the dash and that microwave oven headunit
If you want the bolt to breakoff its better to tight it before lossening it, it Will break off easier
Damn bro you came a long way watched the video loved it than realized it was you keep up that 🔥
I think Im in competition with best non m sounding e46 😤
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Which set of wheels r u using?
Bro all ur dash lights are on 🥴🥴🥴
bro, ur an inspiration man. u made me wanna pursue a full time career in automotive technician. i’ll always be tapping in with this page to learn more and as much as i can through ur experiences. don’t ever change the way u make content, long videos are a godsend. 🤝🏼
Agreed
Big tip: ALWAYS USE OEM EXHAUST MANIFOLD GASKETS
Will save you time from leaks caused with shitty gaskets in the future
Yep the chinese ones are junk. Goes for all exhaust gasket never use those perforated ones, try to find multi layer metal ones.
1 year down with eBay gaskets its hit or miss.
Im not defending the ebay gaskets but ive had them for 6 months and been fine! I smoke tested the exhaust and no leaks! So far…
+can cause an valve cover leak. Can cook up the valve cover n it can bend somehow cause of the heat, causing a leak from ur valve cover.
@@simonroth7126 good shit, I was leaning more towards when drifting especially and a pop and bang tune will kill those eBay gaskets
I would personally paint the tips matte black. Something about twin black exhaust tips that poke out a couple inches just looks so mean. ALSO, get two Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonators, one for each pipe. They will absolutely transform the exhaust note and eliminate most of the unpleasant rasp while keeping the volume.
Side notes:
- In my opinion, cabin audio is so much better when recording POV videos.
- If you want crazy induction noise, look into making a cowl intake (AKA Randall style). Not only do you get crazy induction noise, but the engine gets properly cold air.
yes
i’m watching this shit at work i always get hyped as fuck when joel uploads
Notification gang
🏄♂️
Vanos seals, long tube cold air intake ( down into fog light area) and a flash tune really transformed my 2.5. Would recommend.
I have 04 2.5l Headers,Exhaust,Intake upgraded vanos seals. Also would highly recommend but also 2.5l sounds better than 3.0 with headers.
@@Jay-pd6viand a m50 mani my shits smooth rn
Dude, please help me out. I’ve been dreaming of an intake near the fog light since e46’s run so hot. Where did you get yours?
@@jonovanreglos4638 ruclips.net/video/bkrT8rtXGXw/видео.htmlsi=gSsTqmpdClJnQxkO this guy goes through it all
Yo last night I seen that old video of you spinning out in front of the cops 😅 that was a wild ride man🤣🚙 💨 👮♂️
That's like his top viewed video it's where most of us are from lol some being Day1s.
@@Jay-pd6vi that vid is insane. I was very very surprised how calm his friends were while spinning 🌀 🚙
Homie lookin like a sailor, then I saw the CT plates. hmmm. hahah. Sounds Nasty dude. love it, got a new sub outta me.
Dude fuck the CCV kit just go M50 manifold. You already made the exhaust flow better now add the air it needs and it will be so much better
Nice work on the header install. Did them on my 330ci. It’s not so much hard as it’s fiddly. I only had to trim one rear o2 bung about half inch but everything else fit just fine.
With the chaos calibrations tune it really woke the car up. I’m still running the full factory exhaust. It’s noticeably louder than stock but not obnoxious. It’s a bit boomy inside the car at times. I think a different back box would help but would rather just buy a cat back. Hate exhaust work. Looking for some more sound but don’t think I want full straight pipe like yours.
Keep the content comin.
lets goooo always hyped to see you working on the wagon
What’s the link to the headers you are running?
I would really love to hear this thing with an xpipe or 2, or maybe even an hpipe just to see how it sounds lol
Now i know why you had such a long pause from uploading a few videos back. You've been working out hard. Keep it up bro!
Bro got a christmas tree for an instrument cluster haha. That's how you know it's a BMW drift car. Love it.
You got lucky with the o2 sensors lol i only got 1 to fit back in and i had to hammer my firewall 😅😅
33:30 that side eye had my stomach hurting 💀😭 love your vids bro
sounds good, loud enough but not so loud its pure rasp. Also wanted to ask what O2 spacers you got/used to not throw a CEL emission code?
If it is white smoke, might be condensation. You gonna see a lot of it now without cats.
By the way, what Mic are you using? Cheers!
Hi my friend I was just thinking about you earlier
Ayyyyooo
20 years later, being beaten everyday e46 still gives fun and is unbreakable, amazing!
Idk if I’d say best sounding because I had the same setup for a while I highly suggest the vibrant performance 2.5” turbo single muffler and it sounds so good my buddy had one on his and it sounded amazing but good vid
5:37 so we all got a wire brush that looks crazy 🙈
My exhaust manifold is stainless steel. Not sure if they're stock because they dont look like yours in the beginning. Ive had a shop do my swap so idk if they used custom parts as an alternative to expensive OEM parts
I have that same exact exhaust setup on my e46 😂🔥
Bro you could hear the exhaust what more do you want???? unless you want a drag car yes by all means but hey it’s your car and money.That exhaust sound you have now it’s not stock cuz bmw exhaust note it’s ten times more quietly of any bmw from factory.
Nah I’m triggered my shit took 3 days back to back. Everything was f for me. Still ended up having two leaks from the top and bottom so I sold the car
weekly uploads please atleast
If you buy them used you know it went on a car already, they either fixed the fitment issues or they're going to let you know. You basically built my coupe, just missing an M50 manifold
Also the reason people have O2 sensor fitment issues depends on which header you put in front or back. it's literally 50/50
would this for for an m54b22? i got the 320i sedan an wanting to get headers though ECU is out of stock!!
Man I am so happy for the uploads again missed you bro!!
30:25 That is a horrible saying, just accident waiting to happen. If you need help, ask for help.
Just thought of it dunno if anyone else has but a tshirt with like stencil outline of ur face from when u slun out infront of the cop with “im going to jail” or whatever u specifically said somewhere on it. Id wear that mf
I chnaged the headers on my e39 wagon and now the car wont start. turns over and wont start, Did this happen for you? I need help.
Another banger from Joel as usual. Can’t wait to see you back drifting
As fun as it is to watch you solve problems, it was nice to watch a clean, straightforward install. I always think of how you would react when I work on my car lol
i did the same but god damn the m54 vibrates so bloody much lol- its a horrible upper noise
i have a rhd e82 and the only headers in the world i can get are $2,100 unless i get custom made because the steering rack cant get some cheap headers at all😥
Hi joel, nice video first of all, but for drifting you might wanna consider swapping your diff to a bmw z4 diff with 3.64 ratio, i did the same and the differnence was amazing!! Anyways keep up the good workk
its from manual or automatique z4 , also wich genaration/chassi code of z4 ?
I got a 2001 bmw 325i wagon white i will like to put headers on mine but need help and more info
beautiful ass video man clean shots, showing where every bolt is, appreciate this big time
is the secondary air pump even used at all mine is making a noise and probably causing a air leak but can u just delete it like that? i didnt even know you could delete it
Definitely need some of these on my e46 wagon, pretty sure my cats are clogged feels like I have 90hp lol
Sell your cats. I got ~$750 Canadian a couple years ago for mine. Paid for the headers and almost the price of the car
@@ItsJoshN probably won't get anywhere close to that now, prices of catalytic converters have gone way down
Sounding really good, the downshifts tho 🤙
m50 manifold next , i have a wagon as well and its lovelyyyyyyyy with that setup homie
TOP view engine bay as merch ?
send us the link omg
It Sounds very very good inside the car 👍 is it a M54B30?
where did you buy those headers? looking to replace my oem ones
I sure hope u put loctite on those studs😂 and did a sap block off plate
where tf are people getting headers that fit from ebay????????????????
sounds like my old n52 w headers n straight pipe
i now have the sudden urge to put long tubes on my e39 wagon
my e46 m3 headers were on $70 if it works it works
Oh do you have a tune? If so what tune did you go with?
my boy you high as a kite in the beginning lol
😂
They fit bc someone else already fitted them.
Had to re watch that a couple times 🤨 33:29
😂 love that he kept it in hahaha man has his mind on a girl right now 😅
those forearm veins are making my headers hard 💯
The e46 wagon looks so cozy for some reason, might get one
My turbo e46 330i sounds better...
39:40 man i love driving on CT backroads
What year is your e46 wagon?
Hey Joel awesome video. By any chance do you know the brand of the headers???. I have a 2001 330i M54 that has aftermarket ebay cats and they are leaking (cracked) so I was just thinking on installing a header but I am just lost as there are many vendors in ebay and is hard to guess which will fit as good as the ones you bought.THANKS!
long form content will never get old 🤌
Waiting patiently for e30 content 😭😂
Got myself an F11 330d, now the next goal is E46 330i, then E30 328i (both turbo'd)
Joel lets race our tourings brother
Sounds like a damn civic smhh
love these uploads
You can only use 1 or 2 O2 sensors. You are able to tell the ECU that there is only 1 O2 sensor. Bunch of forums that tell you how ( MSxx wiki is one of those )
Daaaamn it has such a nice pur to it
theres a miata in his garage!!!
kinda funny was just rewatching the first video of the wagon you said "I love that it still has the mufflers on it. Cuz im keeping it that way".
Joel I have some questions about your header install. What brand are those headers and which O2 sensor is not hooked up?
Hey man do you have a link for the manifold studs? Been looking for them for such a long time but can’t find them! Thank you😁
Gawd damn that’s sounds clean af.
Yoo, Thanks I literally have loose header bolts rn
2 questions,
Why did you install the heats shield again ?
And Why not uses single bolts instead of the bolts and nuts
love the videos man.
Best mod
325i?
Great work, brother. I am following you from Saudi Arabia
Nice work ❤️ 👍🏼
W headers
yessir
love these videos
Lets go
Love your vids. So brave of u too be working with that apple watch
A short beaker bar would have been handy don’t you think?
🤣😂🥲😂
