My mods dont touch what some of you guys have done, but its always nice to have a little extra sound come out of the back end. :eek:
I spent about 3 months looking for an exhaust for my M3. There are a TON out there to choose from for this thing.
One thing that was a requirement for me was NO drone when cruising. Ive spent a lot of my time in racecars/track cars with exhausts that gave you a headache after 10min in the car which I personally can not stand.
Number two was how loud it was. A lot of exhausts for these things are extremely loud and make the car sound like crap, or are marginally louder than the factory set up.
Power gains from a muffler on this car are also nothing to brag about, but most mufflers suffer from power loss which I didnt want either. This exhaust is one of the few with added gains at a whopping....6whp.
After searching, many rides, and reading reviews, I decided I wanted the Scorza exhaust by Oakville Motorwerks. They are a small company out of Canada with nothing but great reviews on the exhaust, with huge rave about no drone.
After having it now for about 600 miles, I absolutely love it. What more is there to say. When cruising with the windows up, you can not even tell there is an exhaust on the car. With the windows down, it sounds amazing. Along with being louder than the factory set up, it has a great tone to it that the video below did not pick up very well. Ill admit this isnt the best sounding car to start with, but I am extremely happy with the sound improvements.
A couple videos: Turn it up!
