Dual 57mm Exhaust for e46

[KSINGH]

Hi

I may have to replace my current exhaust system done by Viper. I was thinking of going for the dual 57mm similar to the UUC TSE3 model. Any thoughts?

Cobus (Abel's son) sez they have done a few fitments like this before but asked me to send him a pic of the UUC system to make sure we were on the same page.

I seen another thread talk about Wildcat. I am on their page now.

Does anyone with a dual 57mm live around PTA?

why do u have to change the current xhaust?

 

[KSINGH]

it got banged up. may need a patch up but insurance recommended full replacement.

Just spoke to Tristan at Wildcat. recommended dual 50mm instead. sed I may experience a drop in torque with the 57mm if you dont have other mods like a gasflowed head etc. Waiting for his quote of about R3500.

 

[KSINGH]

okay. Cobus at Viper recommends an X-pipe to help balance the cylinders and Sav recommended TNT. Spoke to Tom who did not do a dual 57mm before on the model in concern.

I am confused :cursin:

I have had good results from TNT with other models...don't know about 57mm though..

I removed the stock 330i header's, bolted on E36 328i catless headers, R600 from scrapyard. Then had Wildcat build a dual 57mm s/s freeflow system for R3000 and 5year warranty.

It sounds awesome!!

Hi Gizmo,

Thanks so much for the photos etc. You sound satisfied with the setup. Is there a reason why they did not go independent through the whole system? you have 2 x-boxes installed.

I would love to get an idea of the sound of it. Any idea what the power gains were if any?

Check out a Remus back box to add onto the rest of the system (secondhand will be cheaper). Was contemplating putting on one of these. Sounds really good without the drone.

 

[KSINGH]

got a remus pamphlet somewhere for a discount. arent they quite expensive?

 

[CheapnNasty]

It's kak expensive (From R5000-R10000+ a few years ago). That's why if you can get a secondhand one it's better, about a 80% discount
