328i Drivers: Do you embrace your one-sided dual exhaust?

Echoninety · 07-18-2018, 01:57 PM

I like the symmetry of a dual but really think that a single outlet can look great but I don't really like too many of the options I've seen. A few here look ok but the hardest part around an exhaust on an N52 is that you don't gain a lot of HP so you are doing it for the sound and so many don't sound great. Plus it is impossible to test unless all of your friends have each of the three exhausts you want to possibly buy.

Love my 328i exhaust. Especially when it’s the Performance Exhaust.

Ask us 135i guys how we feel about getting single side exhausts

Seriously, who cares. Even most of the "dual" exhaust BMWs are fake. There's no logical reason to split the tips on the 335i - it was done purely for looks.

A single 2.5" pipe is good enough for like 300hp. BMW now puts fake exhuast noises through the speakers (and people *pay* to have this "tuned"). Just be glad we arent "there" yet...

I loaded up my parent's F10 with Carly and switched the N20 sound with the Rolls Royce V12 motor

I embrace it. Just like Snoop said "only on the left side, yeah that's the Crip side"
