quad exhaust/changes needed for 335

gt3jo · 02-03-2007, 06:48 AM

Hi,

As I really seem to need quad exhausts on my cars for some reason.... I went to the local exhaust "doctor" to get him to operate on my car.

This proved to be no easy task. The available space surrounding the exhaust ends is very limited, and we needed to modify all the fixings for the rear silencers ++ And on the left hand side there was a (pardon my english) thing that shuts the left exhaust off and redirects it to the right side exit. The thing is operated by a vacuum hose of some sort...

Anyway the "thing" had to go to fit the new tips, and the hose was plugged. Anyone know if it is a bad thing to plug hoses and remove "things" on the 335 ??

(ps. the rebadging of the car has proved a huge irritation for many a Audi, Merc and Subaru driver...)

that thing on the left exhause was the flux capacitor, i cant believe you took it off and your car still runs

The quads look much nicer than the stock 335i/d pipes, which are too big, IMHO.

Lol 316i

316i

But if people have some knowledge but the e91, they will know that the smallest engine in the e90 is 318i

Ah but there actually is a 316i, although it is only available in a few countries as I recall.

I agree though - it is funny.

Norway has the 316i, but only for the e90 not the e91.

Yeah, that's probably true. I honestly didn't even realize it was an E91.

Hey, the 316i badge made me laugh out loud too. Does it confuse the BMW techs when you take it in for a service :-)

My 335d badge is not quite straight, and I had been thinking of de-badging, but now you made me think that I could replace it with 320d...

The only problem is the twin exhaust pipes would give the game away - worse with yours now you've got quads, though I guess that's part of the reason it's so funny.

dme330i · 02-03-2007, 10:03 AM

LOL - 316i.

Your car looks great!

BMW320i · 02-03-2007, 10:06 AM

cool mods, the exhaust and re-badging looks good

and M-package makes it a beast!!

Red Star Rising · 02-03-2007, 10:30 AM

Yeah, the 316 engine hasn't got enough power to move the extra 50kg

ironic · 02-03-2007, 02:13 PM

wow those quads are HOT man, very nice

as far as rebadging, that's pretty damn funny haha

Park2670 · 02-04-2007, 10:54 AM

As long as the vacuum hose was plugged it wont give you any issues. Its just there to close off one exhaust while the engine is cold to make it quieter. It opens up once you pass a certain RPM

ksfrogman · 02-04-2007, 01:33 PM

I love the rebadge. Haha.

shragon · 02-05-2007, 06:08 PM

badged as a 316i!! you gotta love it!!
