Unicorn questions: BMW Performance exhaust, not the same as BMW 330 ZHP

I think he was trying to drift it. Kinda hard with an open diff.

Do you say this in a good or bad way? Exhaust worth getting?

Bad way. It is an exhaust very much suited to the E46fanatics crowd, if you catch my drift. It sounded nice in the videos, and incredible outside the car (although very loud). It did attract attention, and for the first 30 seconds of any cold startup it is very loud. Inside the car it is more monotonous, it's boring, and it is always loud. It would be very loud before 4k RPM, then seam to die off near the top. It never did drone, but the exhaust was so annoying to me that it wasn't any better for it.

Still my favorite is headers with the Borla catback. Pretty loud though...

The Highline full catback is supposed to drone badly in the 2700RPM range IIRC.

How about the Magnaflow catback for our cars. Just a hint louder; one guy has it on his zhp. Saves a decent amount of weight as well- and doesn't cost too much.

$665 shipped from an earlier E46fanatics group buy if you follow these instructions:
