For me it will be the Dinan FFE, just waiting for corporate to have their next 20% off sale.

And as my local Dinan shop usually advertises a 10% off coupon, it's a no-brain-er.

LOL is that your anti-tamper alarm?

Are those VMR VB3's in Hyper Black? They look better on your blue car than on my black sapphire.

It's hooked up to my regular horn.... so don't cut me off!

Those are the alfugen cs7's powder coated gunmetal.

Damn, sounds like me!

I can't stand loud exhausts, and I drive long enough distances that drone on the highway would be unacceptable. Stock exhaust for me, at least on the N54. Now an E92 M3, that's different entirely. I feel too old...

Not only the noise/drine factor, but it's nice to drive extremely fast with no noise - much lower profile around law enforcement! And people will wonder what the hell just blew their doors off without making any sound other than rushing air.

Easy!

Akroprovic titanium = Best exhaust there is for 335i.

Oh, you want it to be cheap too.....

This. But until someone lists the full system not just the axel back used I'll be sticking with my AE.

Good DP and the stock exhaust and your good
To go...of course when it Comes to performance a HF Cat or Catless Add on EXH would increase air flow from tip to toe....but DP's...well..

With the N54 DP (BMS for example) you will get a great sound even with stock EXH. DP are really important regardless of the EXH. They add performace and sound not matter what. Pls don't quote me on the gains of DP's, they vary depending on your car and set up.

Happy driving!

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Bastuck Exhausts yet.

They sound perfect on the N54 IMO

How did you fix your rattle? Was it rear wg adjustment or settings? I got it set up so it doesn't rattle anymore on the jb4 side.

i updated from 15b to 16b, but i think it was more a matter of poor wastegate adaptation (which was fixed after defaulting). not a peep from the wastegates at any lagfix setting now.

pretty simple fix. not sure why terry doesn't suggest that as a troubleshooting tip...
