What you’re seeing above is my third attempt at the exhaust for the V12. (tips weren’t welded) A good change from my mangled AC Schnitzer exhaust. (it’s for sale now). The system above started with just 4 pieces of cylindrical silencers. Sounds really great but was just way too loud.
Then I had the end silencers removed and fitted the rectangular ones you see in the picture at the end. both Vertically fitted for clearance purposes. The rectangular muffler also had a restrictor fitted to further quiet it down. Sounds More muffled but just doesn’t sound right. Looks real ugly too.
This time, the 3rd time visiting the shop, I got the rectangulars welded to the front, then the little cylindrical silencers, then the X-pipe and then the longer cylindricals. This time, i’m happy. More pictures and sound video to come 
Some specs of my custom exhaust:
- 2.5″ galvanized Pipes
- Stainless Steel Silencers
- 2 x Rectangular muffler + Restrictor
- 2 x Long cylindrical muffler
- 2 x Short cylindrical muffler
- X-Pipe
- 2 x 4″ Tail pipes
Nothing like this of course.
Here’s the Ericsson M480 full titanium system for the E92 M3. Gotta love the double barrel design which is going to be my base idea for my own stainless exhaust system. Tough the E34 only allows for a single side. I might be getting a custom fuel tank in the future to allow for twins on either side. There are also a couple of other exhaust system in the gallery, namely the Supersprint system for the E60 M5.
One reason why i wanted to get these one-off exhaust manifolds made is because i needed them and also, they’re a must-have!. It’s a needed part purely because the stock ones just won’t clear the Right hand drive steering shaft.
It’s a tough job trying to make these stainless steel manifolds. lotsa clearance issues especially where Continue reading ‘My custom made stainless exhaust manifolds for the M70 V12′
