TriggerFish Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Did you keep the secondary cats too, or is it completely straight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brettyboy Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Mine is straight thru,sounds great on acceleration & quiet on motorway,i know a good few ppl with custom exhausts with no churp,if u don't want straiaght thru fit a nice back box Edited October 14, 2014 by Brettyboy CharlE46 and TriggerFish 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlE46 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Yes they do Something wrong with yours then LOL My 330d has decat & straight thru pipe,sounds great with no chirp Can we have a sound/video clip... pleeeeaaaaassseee I've done some preliminary drawings of the exhaust and worked out angles etc, may have a go at doing a diy bolt together 76mm straight through system using parts from Jetex, if it works and sounds good I'll then replicate it in stainless steel but welded properly. nevkid91 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

estoril blues Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Interesting thread. So is there any benefit in getting a full, turbo back system as a 3 inch all the way or is it better to have a twin 2.5 inch instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottfreee3 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I am going to get mine priced tomorrow. Either a 3inch from turbo back or start with a 3inch and move to 2 x 2.5. I'd imagine the 2 smaller diameter would be less drowny? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtidaz Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Was just about to start a topic and noticed this one, I'm after some form of dual or quad system for my facelift 330CD...its more for the asthetics but a bit of note under acceleration would be nice...does anybody have any reccomendations? I would like something like this: May not be to everyones taste but I think it looks awesome, would consider an M3 style where they are closer together but heard its hard to do on a 330?...Also don't want to replicate an M3 too much as it isnt one! Would really appreciate any advice as I'm struggling to find anything that isn't stupid money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kermitthefrog Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 I'm not sure about the setup in this pic, but an M3 will be very difficult with the spare wheel well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtidaz Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 So I believe, I wonder if it would be possible to simply get the current system modified, ie change the current tailpipe (or maybe even the whole back box) then get the extra pipe made up with matching tail piece and welded into the existing system, would this cause any issues with the car running? Back pressures etc, I'm not very clued up on the subject. .. I'll have a look underneath tomorrow and see how much space is available under the car. As said it's more for the aesthetics than any performance gains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kermitthefrog Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I'm no use to you on this subject mate sorry. I'm sure someone will pick this up tomorrow! Tbh I have not heard of anyone with a dual system, but I may be wrong.... vtidaz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtidaz Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 No bother! I havnt myself really, I've always had a thing for dual exit systems just never had a car that could actually pull it off! I think there's a fine line between it looking classy and looking tacky... Time will tell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aamir Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Earlier I posted a vid of a 330d with straight pipes replacing the back box. Here's a couple more, but with a twin pipe setup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOusePj4B60 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJqfbcNQPYY Edit: Not mine BTW Edited November 7, 2014 by Aamir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was involved in getting that setup? Is the right hand pipe shorter than the left? Looks it on the video Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aamir Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Looks like 2 pipes connected to the stock system. I think he went for a shorter pipe rather than cut the bumper on the other side The more exhaust variations we can get in this thread, the more informed choice people can make I also posted a vid with downpipe removed (page 3), that's sound pretty awesome. I'm contemplating getting an exhaust butterfly valve from the states. At the flick of a switch the sound changes dramatically, otherwise stock sound.
