Hi All
Has anyone ever fitted a genuine bmw performance exhaust to their 335i? Looking for a little more noise without making it too loud. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hi Steve, welcome to the site, keep the stock exhaust and do the golf tee mod (opens the valve on second pipe) it does the trickI'm pretty sure you'll be very pleased with the result
Are you based in Cork by any chance? 07-D-66130 yours?

Great advice John, spend a couple of thousand euro without even trying a free modBMW performance exhaust sounds great on them and is great value.

Try it or at least look it up Steve, there's no modification to the exhaust whatsoever you don't cut back boxes out or anything like that, you just unplug a cable, and if you don't like it you plug it back in, you'd be mad not to try it before pulling the trigger on an exhaust.

All it does is fool the exhaust in to thinking the engine is warm all the time.
The flap that you are keeping open all the time opens anyway when the engine gets up to normal running temp.
There is absolutley no comparison to a silencer upgrade.
Here's a link to a performance exhaust in Germany.
They ship to the UK regularly. Well known on UK forums. Very competitive price.

Haha thanks guys. I am based in Kildare. Will post a few pics this weekend. Where is best value for the bm exhaust. Joe Duffy were off the wall with their price
That's a very good price...the performance exhaust sounded very very good on your 135 John...but at the same time, the standard exhaust on Peters 335 sounds good too.
The actuated flap in the passenger side exhaust opens within a few minutes of starting a cold car. What it does is keeps heat in the exhaust pipes in order to warm up the catalytic converter so it does its job fast. It's only a gimmicky thing to do with emissions.
If it was to only open when the engine gets up to full operating temp it wouldn't open for 15-20 minutes of driving :P
