Anyone looking to get PE mod done?

col2611 · 08-16-2016, 03:49 PM

Anyone that had a standard 335i exhaust that's looking to get a PE mod done?
I had mine done but now I'm selling the car I think it would sell easier to a non enthusiast without the PE mod.

So if someone wants to swap my exhaust for theirs and cover the labour costs then they can have it for free. It has 3.8" Cyba tips on it too.

It cost me £360 plus the cost of the tips (about £90) just under a year ago
Just thought I would ask on here because it's a popular mod but can be a bit pricey. If nobody is interested then I will try and sell the car with it on

What shape is it off? Where abouts are you?

E93, Manchester

I'd be all over this but wrong variant and 200 plus miles away :-(

Out of interest how did you find it since you had it done ? Any other exhaust mods or just the PE box ?

I presume it's not genuine BMW,

If it'd fit an e92, I might be interested. Could probably swap the back boxes over on my drive. Is it obnoxiously loud? I'm based near Crewe too, so not miles away.

It will, or should go on, I sold my BMW PE to some one with a coupe. Simple bolt off, bolt on...

Ok cool - i guess it just depends on how loud it is... don't want it to be super loud. If it's good - an doesn't drone, i'll take it and do the swap over.

YouTube it. Plenty of videos that give sound

Yeah I have done - some seem to drone, others don't.

Balls to it - i'm in... OP - drop me a PM and we can sort something out. I'm assuming there needs to be some cutting done to mine, so will need to look at some clamps and finding the angle grinder!

Have a look under the car, I think its just unbolt the rear part as that's all i did, shouldn't require cutting, unless the OP system is welded in place....

How far back do you go? Just been out to look under mine, and it looks like the exhaust is a complete unit, all the way back to the secondary cats?

Its the same on the 335D

Nope - mine doesn't look like that. Both muffler are welded together, rather then sleeved. There's also no central muffler - just two pipes that come out of the backboxes and go down to two individual secondary cats. They're all one piece.

Like I say, it's no hardship to remove them / or cut and sleeve them.

No drone from it and I have the flap fixed open via the jb4. There hasn't been any cuts on mine. They dropped the whole exhaust and cut into the back boxes, at least that's what I asked them to do. I haven't been under it since it was done. I'd rather there not be any cuts.

It's not too loud either, unless you want it to be

Ok cool - in some respects that makes it easier. Like I said, I'm happy to have a crack at swapping them on my driveway? I have ramps, jacks and stands and all the tools needed?
