Fitting E90 BMW performance exhaust - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Perth335i · 03-08-2013, 02:07 AM

Gents!

I'm chasing some info, I have a cat back BMW performance exhaust for my E90.

The existing system is standard factory.

What needs to be done to fit this? Are any cuts, joins, flanges, v clamps needed to join this up to the existing factory exhaust?

Thanks
Matt

You cut the oem mufflers off and the replacement exhaust clamps onto the oem pipes remaining

With the E90 you have the extra mid section pipe right, so have to cut the oem item also there by using a pipe cutter and then using the supplied clamps to fasten it into place, any exhaust shop should be able to do this easily for you in around an hour.

The system arrived just fine, thanks. I'm going to install some catless down pipes at the same time so just sorting those out as well.

After a few other things are installed over the coming weeks I'll post post up a "showcase" thread
