Is it possible for N54 to sound like this??
I know e46 M3 sounds raspy kinda high pitch and our N54 sounds more deep tone but is there any exhausts out there that sounds similar to this? |

^lol basically
Delete all cats and resonators, and you'll be as close as you can get to that CSL with a FI engine. Rasp for days.

If you think that sounds like a civic, I think there might be something wrong with you. You will never get that sound from a N54. Its a straight 6, that's a V8. The way the exhaust pulses merge and flow is what creates the exhaust note. V8's and Straight 6's will always have a different exhaust, no matter which exhaust, cats, resonators or lack thereof.

Nothing wrong with a good sounding E46 M3, (its an iconic sound for inline 6 BMW's) but if you want that sound you need that engine and more importantly you dont want 2 turbo's muffling the sound like on the N54.
You can run N/A mode on some tunes, it would sound close to that if you have a good aftermarket exhaust, however, power output is sub 200HP. |

Oh shit, I glanced at this and watched the video you cant really see the car as it goes by. I thought it was a new M3. You are correct. Inline 6. Well I stand very corrected. Sounds mean for an I6

I am also looking for that exhaust tone.
With the right setup (cat and resonators removed) it may sound similar but never deep like V8. Check out the clip above, you might like this setup. |

Why is everyone talking about V8's?! They're both I6!! OMG haha
That sound is far from "ricey" Sorry but you need to get your ears checked LOL. I would think a Meisterschaft exhaust would give you the closest sound.

It really is an impossibility to get a tone like that from a boosted car. Turbo's change the sound of the exhaust and muffle it substantially. There are some pretty sick sounding turbo exhausts as well.

Check out my HPF exhaust man, I think you'll like it! some of the higher tones get cut out because it's a cell phone. I can't post vids so search "MikesMetalandSpeed" on YouTube I've got a couple clips of it on there!
