My 1998 E39 540i with a custom exhaust (manifold-back, 200 cell cats) from Zero Exhausts and wireless exhaust valve from Vabric, showing the difference with the valve closed and open. Filmed by BMSport while the car was in their workshop. Volume up and enjoy!

It seems like that it only opens one bank of Cylinders, shouldn`t 2 valves be used for a V8 ?

No, because my exhaust goes 2-into-1, so I only need one valve.

I've just bought a 540i Touring and that's exactly what I'm after. A nice fruity V8 sound with the valve closed then a full-on sound with the valve open. How reliable has the valve been? I can see these for sale on eBay but I've no way of knowing what the quality is like.

It's been absolute trash, it's actually funny how awful the valve was. I went through four of them and every single one failed, which was awful because then it was pretty much open all the time, as I think the teeth on the gears stripped themselves and it would just flap about. After the fourth one the supplier gave me his last vacuum-operated valve and that is fantastic - it works instantly and defaults to closed when you start the car. If you can find a vacuum one then get that. Otherwise I'd suggest going for one from someone like QTP because at least then it's been supplied by a UK company that should offer some sort of after sales support, rather than buying from someone on eBay in China with no follow up.

@@NeoNeko99 I'm really glad you replied so quickly because I'm ready to take the plunge. I might just go for a custom system to avoid the hassle and embarrassment of a valve stuck open all the time. Pipe Werx near me gave me reasonable quotes and have a good reputation. Cheers.

@@superbracey No worries :) And that sounds like a good plan - every custom system is different but I absolutely love mine, it's absolutely perfect, exactly what I wanted. I'm sure you'll be super happy :)

who did the work and what exhaust did you use?

+Anthony Michael The whole exhaust was custom-made by Zero Exhausts in Kent.

ah ok... what would that cost me to have that made for me and shipped to south florida you think?

+Anthony Michael Honestly, I don't know. Zero Exhausts make each exhaust from scratch so there's no off-the-shelf option they have available that they could ship to you. I know they've made E39 540i systems before but I don't know if they've got a jig set up so they can make them to the same specs again. I take it you don't have any good exhaust shops near you?

Nope. Nobody honest. In looking for something unique with the bypass valve

+Anthony Michael Ah, that sucks. The valve shouldn't be difficult for a shop to fit to an exhaust, especially if you get one that's attached to a Y-pipe.
