GREAT sound in that first clip Dio. Can't wait for the full review
Because they cost money to find the correct spot so it help canceling the waves from one side to the other

Although I am an E46 M3 and E90 M3 owner, I just want to applaud you for your great engineering and devotion. It is rather rare to see this type of fabrication and design amidst us enthusiasts here on the many BMW forums.

I personally am thinking about building a custom SPipe, XPipe, and Muffler for my own E46 M3. I haven't been too happy with the systems that are currently readily available. So I'm hoping to design something that complements my SS V2 Stepped Headers.

I see you're located in IL, it would be great to get together one day and hear your beast and maybe discuss some theories of exhaust fabrication.

I really wish I had a Z4 right now......

Thank You!
The S-pipe we have (Sport V2, Race V2 & CAt 300 V2) will fit your car.
A meeting could not hurt tho.

Nice! I had a feeling it would fit. I assume the same for the headers too then?

I had some questions regarding the measurements and thought behind some of choices in design. I'm not sure if you are willing to share just yet prior to the release of your product or not.

Would it be better to discuss via email?

I'll be back in Chicago in December, so either way, it would be great to meet.

3) Will your stepped headers fit the E46 M3?
4) Do you have expectations to surpass the performance of the SS V2 Stepped Headers?
5) What is the difference between the resonators used in your Street V1 and Street V2?
6) Are you willing to make a one-off XPipe Section 2 and muffler for the E46 M3?

Thanks!!
