Exhaust is leaking at the flanges. I can hear it when I'm coasting in gear.
Going to have the headers chopped and rewelded to the stock position on tomorrow afternoon.

My flanges didn't mate well either, and mine were BB headers. Mine were off axis some...but not an inch from mating. If your going to the exhaust shop anyways and planning on keeping stock exhaust setup, I highly recommend getting them to put an H pipe in...otherwise it will be very tinney sounding...I put one in with my AR25s and it helped a lot.

Eventual plan is to have a single 3" exhaust with an ar30 and a Vibrant 1047 at the back.

The tinney sound is very real, I actually enjoy it, but plan to swap the catless back to the magnaflow system

Hmmm. That actually sounds like a good plan. I haven't heard of the vibrant before..looks like a nice muffler! I like that it keeps the dual tipsOriginally Posted by Hornung418

Going to see what they would charge me for a full custom build. But first I need to get the header flanges to line up with the OEM exhaust location. From there we will determine the way to go.
I really hope Doug the exhaust builder has the insight to make the exhaust as best as possible.

Are you going to have them fab a header back exhaust system for yours?

Changed my brake lights today. Had a passenger side rocket booster to start the morning. Figured it was something with all the rain we got. Nope. Just a regular repair.
Appointment for exhaust is Friday at 8am. Hopefully we can lay out a plan to get things in motion for the 3" single.
Also in the works is a lil something specialmaybe I will be able to debut it at Bimmerfest...
