Looking for more sound

Burdman · 11-23-2016, 03:43 PM

Hi I am pretty new to this site. I have a 2013 M3 E92 Coupe. Currently my only mod is a Fi Catback exhaust and I want to be a bit louder, but not crazy loud. I don't know a ton about cat deletes or other ways of improving sound on a budget. I was looking at test pipes. Would that remove all cats? I've been told that test pipes would remove all cats. How would I go about removing one cat? I apologize for my lack of knowledge with aftermarket products, but I hope someone can lead me in the right direction. Thank you

No , test pipes delete only your primary cats . And test pipes will be louder and add about 15 HP .

The test pipes...

Perhaps change the exhaust? Meisterschaft is pretty loud for catback

Long_Wang · 11-23-2016, 06:15 PM

Start small.

Get a slip on axel back system first and see how it fits your taste. YouTube is flooded with sound clips for you to sample.

Tracyis300 · 11-23-2016, 07:17 PM

Get hi flow cats

Burdman · 11-24-2016, 09:38 AM

So if I get test pipes that will delete my primary cats? I won't be catless right? Below is a link of my car now so you can see how it sounds. It is valvetronic so hopefully if I do get the test pipes if it is too loud I can just turn the valves off. Also I know I need a tune for the CEL. I was looking at this Black Friday deal and want to see what you all think:

This is how it sounds now. Only have a catback.

Down shift much?

Just curious, why don't you let it wind out a bit more between shifts or do you just like to use all the gears and then listen to the blip on downshifts?

Burdman · 11-25-2016, 08:24 PM

@Mr. BMW lol I do have an addiction of downshifting whenever I can. I know I probably shouldn't do that so often, but it's a bit addicting.

I have a Meisterschaft gt with evolve xpipe. Truly sounds epic!

Ok I see, just go for test pipes with your Fi Catback exhaust and a tune .
One thing is for sure...My BPM/Tune and DCT software upgrade is perfect.

andykim1990 · 12-10-2016, 07:26 AM

I used to run IPE F1 catless x-pipe with Meisterschaft Super GT exhaust.

No cats, no resonators, no mufflers.

It is LOUDDDDDDDDDDDD.

Get Meisterschaft super gt if you want something crazy loud.

That must have been insanely loud, but did it sound good? Any clips?

I have no idea how to upload video clips here so I've got some links from my Instagram.
(If links don't work, please visit my IG @loud_m3)

All these clips are only up to 4000 RPM because I have the cold start rev limit protection feature from BPM stage II tune

I recently got rear ended by a teenager kid, so I'm no longer running Meisterschaft Super GT exhaust. Waiting for Fi valvetronic exhaust this time!

Enjoy the clips!

Damn and I thought my exhaust set up was loud

Good luck on your next set up. Sorry to hear about the punk teenager kid rear ending your car

Test-Pipes are a easy way to make the car louder, I would suggest that paired with a tune.
