Aftermarket-too old?
I am no stranger to BMW having a 08 BMW 128i. I had that auto for 7 years! But there seems to be a shortage of ANY exhaust, cold air boxes, and go-fast parts and the like OR am I looking into the wrong places? (ECS, Euro) And I guess the exhaust for $2500 to $3500 is way out of my budget! As in the past, if I couldn't buy it, I made it on my own! I think I have owned too many Miata's and GTI's where everybody and their brother made aftermarket stuff! Be gentle with me, I'm 73!

Yes the non-M Z4 is pretty hard to find exhausts for. Most folks have something made up at a muffler shop. There is an Eisenmann option but it's pricey.

I screwed up my exhaust system for a few years, and then devised and installed the following items on my E85 Z4 3.0si:
Schmiedmann High Flow Sport Cats Part # SCM5254KATUR 35x25x15cm Inlet 59mm Outlet 61mm $292.47 MagnaFlow Resonator Part # 11378 Inlet size: 2.25 Outlet size: 2.25 Diameter: 4 A-1 Performance $102.73 each Different Trends 3.5 Exhaust Tips Part # DT-24017AC Inlet size: 2.25 Outlet size: 3.5 A-1 Performance $18.51 each The sound fits the car and adds growls, hisses, occasional pops and gurgles. The high flow cats are secondary and will not trigger a CEL. Its a tiny resonant that replaces the stock exhaust system. And the exhaust tips a large at 3.5 inches each, but they fill the exhaust cutout of the factory rear valance when centered perfectly. |
