N52 Moderately Modded, Exhaust Video
Finally got around to dialing in a bunch of stuff on my E90 328i. I got the exhaust how I wanted with the P.E. paired with the afe catless mids and a vibrant resonator. The sound is intoxicating and the car feels more alive, but still not as quick as I'd like it to be, which is why I will be doing the 3IM mod + tune very soon. Anyways here's a short 3 min video I made over the past week highlighting the exhaust set-up, enjoy!

Thought I was looking at my own car on the Youtube thumbnail
3SIM, MILVs, Headers. Do it and it will completely awaken the car!

I put a Vibrant resonator in and it helped with the drone a little, not nearly enough though. Gave up and now I have a stock muffler and resonator setup. The AFE intake gives me the growl when I'm WOT and I prefer it this way. Maybe one day I'll try the "PE mod" to the stock muffler and see if it gives me that little extra volume I want over stock.

Sounds great.
Ah, too bad you don't have MT. You Auto guys are missing out. My favorite "pop" is the one that happens right as I up-shift. It's like "vrooooooomm!! crackle POW vrrooooommm" lol. And I love that I don't have to drive like a crazy man for it to happen.. 3.5-4k is enough.

hehe no worries.. they're definitely rare these days. I lucked out for sure. Happy motoring
It's funny because I think I'd prefer the DCT on an N55 or new M car.. pretty much anything turbo. Those DCT turbo shifts are siiick.

Thanks for doing a video that gives a much better idea of the actual sound instead of the typical revving in a parking garage most people do, haha. Sounds great and the car looks super clean.

^Nice. I'm using a VideoMic Me (whatever the one is that plugs directly into a cell phone). Seems decent so far but it's a little finicky.

So it's the Vibrant 1792 Bottle Style Resonator and it's on the y pipe, towards the end where it meets the muffler. Here's a photo, not the best but it gives you an idea of where it the resonator sits. Mind you I bought this exhaust from a forum member used so it was already on the P.E. when I received it.
