Assume so! All I did was the backbox delete! Mine was a manual though. Don't know if it makes a difference as my auto E39 doesn't sound like this with the same mods!
thank you for your answer bmw e 320D 136 horse power manual 5 steps I hope that if I do the same as you I will put the pipe at the end so that it sounds like this I love this sound
It is a mk2.5 manifold mk2 downpipe (standard) with a section of 2.25" stainless welded in to adapt it to a mk1 decat and mx5 parts single exit cat back exhaust. What I have recently done is now welded it onto v bands and have a removable straight pipe or resonated section to put on for certain trackdays. This was straight pipe centre.
Mine is a mx5parts cat back with a custom decat it usually measures about 97 static, not aure what it gets driveby, but didn't have any problems last year
Yes do it! Mines a 1.8 and it makes 190hp, 180ft/lb 👍 It feels like a fast naturally aspirated car, but you do get ti a limit where the boost can't get turned up any more, which is where turbo takes over! Bur this is fast enough for track days!
I've stubbed my toe harder than this "crash". Glad I didn't take the click bait and watch 9 minutes of Mazda for the "payoff" I hope you get indigestion. Good day
Thanks for the info, Ben. I have an '03 e39 530i in which I replaced the ABS module with a rebuilt unit (not my original). Unfortunately the rebuild was coded for an automatic trannie and not my 5-speed - and thus my DSC remains disabled. Can you possibly point me to which coding module to access to change that option? I have already installed all the BMW Tools & I have the K+DCAN cable, so I should be set to go.
Thanks for video. Today I read Ecu from my E39 and module- RAD is not in list, but I use monoblock radio. Why? Also, I have two modules- Mid+Type_Dec. But on MID, I dont see frecuense and time... So, I use only monoblock Radio... Best regards from Minsk, Belarus!!!
hi, which cable do you use? i have a 1999 e39 535i with the obd1 under the hood in the engine bay and one obd2 under the light controllmodule. Which one did you use for coding? greetings from deutschland
From what I understand, you would use the one under the hood. I have a 2000 528i and i can access all modules using the round connector under the hood. I will be doing some diagnosing today and will report back
As long as there is a round connector on your BMW, you always should use this one. Because not all of the ECUs are accessible through the OBD2. This changed once the OBD2 became standard in about 2002 and simultaneously the old round connector was no longer included.
I didn't use any angles, just cut straight lengths of pipe at angles to make the bends, I'll be honest though I never really measured anything! Just offered it up and made it fit 👍
@@KylesCarsYT you are correct, I had two glow plug errors on this, replaced the glow plugs and it doesn't smoke at all now. Never used any oil since I've had it, hardly even worth bothering checking it, it is that good!
Bro finally! People have been following your setup because it’s awesome. What’s your current setup? I’m dying to get my ecu sorted out before throwing on my own M45
Thanks man! M45 supercharger, 17% reduction pulley, intercooler, dual throttle bodies, forge dump valve, rx8 yellow injectors, me221 ecu, Ali rad, coolant reroute, dual cooling fans, torsen 4.1lsd I'm going to do a video soon of a bit of a walk around of the car!
Not difficult, I used a exhaust cutting tool, like a chain whip with little cutting wheels on it, took about 20 minutes for a nice clean cut. You could use a reciprocating saw or angle grinder and be a through in a few minutes with a little more mess!
does anyone know why it does that blue smoke and rough idle? my father has a diesel volvo doing the same even tho it took "repacked" injectors... cames... all sorts of filters and still does it... bad tuning?
Just getting rid of the muffler in the exhaust! The less restrictions you have in the exhaust the more noise you get! I do want to get rid of one of the catalytic Converters too which will make it louder!
