did anyone figure out if that diverter mod thing was safe or not? someone here with a boost guage was saying that it caused really bad boost spikes that went away as soon as he put it back...

After one day driving with this mod, I can say that I really like hearing the exhaust clearly when rev matching (6MT)... but I'm undecided concerning the droning during steady-state driving (ie, highway cruising)

the lead pellet worked great, just put it in and put the hose back on, took about 2 minutes.
no droning, just a tad louder sound. had this mod on my e46 330ci for years with no problems. |

Anyway, just did it and went for a quick spin... it seems a bit louder around 2-3k, but that's about the only difference I notice so far. The car actually felt a bit faster, but then again it was a quick spin and could be all in my head and temps only got up to like 190 or so.... I'll test it out better tomorrow. |

Yes, droning with the stock exhaust.
Since performing the mod there's a noticeable, constant exhaust hum at highway speed. I usually drive at 120-140km/h on the highway. That's just my observation, take it or leave it. Anybody can perform the mod and evaluate for themselves.

I just unpluged it but what noise are you talking about. Maybe I'm deaf but you guys seem to amaze me if you can hear anything noticeable. |

i haven't read anything like that. i doubt that's even possible. you're just venting to atmosphere rather than back into the intake. it's good for sound and that's about it.

Okay.
I guess I'm just one of the people BMW was also considering when they engineered the flap.

I did it yesterday as well. Honestly couldnt really tell any difference. Granted my windows were closed the whole time but its still pretty quiet. The only time I heard some drone was when I was going up hill. Other than that Ill just leave it unplugged, if anything maybe both my tips will get equally dirty now.

I have to agree. Windows down, you hear "pop-poppoppop-pop-pop" when you let off of the gas, especially in low gears with good engine breaking forces. With windows up I actually get a drone and find it bordering on annoying. I may undo this mod in the winter when I have the windows up all the time. Both cases are darn obvious.
