Hi Everyone,
I own a 435d Xdrive F36 Gran Coupe and i am looking for a bit more 'grunt'
Has anybody got any suggestions or can recommend a custom exhaust specialist in the North West ?

Thanks

Top Gear Stockport I used for my 35d. not quite sure what you mean by more grunt. had my back box removed and changed to straight through dual exit. sound deeper and a bit Burbley bit I wouldn't say grunt is achievable on these cars

This is a stock with the valve mod vs M Performance axle back exhaust (straight after it was fitted) - it has mellowed into a richer sound as well now that I've put some miles through it.

As snipnoob86 said it's not really achievable with the stock muffler, you can remove the cats and do a res delete, however you'll just increase the crackling & poping and maybe add some volume to what you currently have.

Personally I'd say it's down to your budget - everyone up north used to tell me about Tony Banks but from the videos I listened to it became apparent to me that all you'd achieve there was some deep rumbling sounds. A lot of people seem to be swapping over to Remus or even better if budget ain't an issue then find someone with a contact at Armytrix


Edit:

Ah, my bad I've just noticed that you're running a diesel. If you're in Leeds or nearby one week maybe you should try Tony Banks then, he's the only one I know of that will do custom exhausts for diesels.

That's a beautiful and unusual looking car.

Not local to you but can recommend MIJ Motorsports and also Aldon Automotive down my neck of the woods- Birmingham way.

Thank you for the kind comments
Yes, i have had a quote from Longlife Topgear in Stockport for £900.
Although the dual exit does look nicer and more symmetrical, I would be looking to keep it OEM looking and have the twin exhausts on one side. Dont ask why, i am just fussy like that.
By grunt i mean something exciting to the ears but not boy racer style.
I am not after any extra power but if it does ouput a few extra ponies then i guess that is a bonus.
Thanks for all the replies
