Remus Quad Exhaust Installed on x3

I just wanted to mention that I’m in love with how much the car changed from this upgrade. The look, and sound are spot on. I purchased it from mike@x-ph.com (Extreme powerhouse). I would definitely recommend them for future purchases. My questions were answered quick and shipping was fast, like less than a week fast. Remus put together a really easy approach to the cutting procedure and quality parts and a lot of thought. Until next time,J

You're going to have to return it.

Chrome tips. I had that moment of regret for not doing something else, but that went away after I finished. I personally like that they’re stamped, but you could always flip them over.

I still have to get new hangar bushings and I also have clamps I put over the rubber bushings, but I’ll do that in a few days. It definitely moves a little more than I like, but that has zero to do with the exhaust

I have the same exhaust and love it. Although I find mine drones a little bit on the highway. But looks good.

I got mine from Mike also. Great customer service would recommend him! Answered all my pm’s even on Sunday! Day or night. Exhaust came in a timely matter also. And great price!

Quality is definitely it Supersprint quality but for the price I can’t complain. Does anyone know who sells the tips separately? I may want to change the tips later.

I feel that the exhaust is too quiet on my 35i. It’s almost as if it is quieter than my stock! Only had it for a week so probably have a few hundred miles on it only. Will it get louder? Thinking of doing resonator delete.

80mm tips, on 60mm piping

Mine sounds identical to this. I’ll do a video if wanted. I know there’s others posted on this already so I felt there was some info out there already.

How hard was it to hack the hole in the lower bumper for the tips on the right?

Wasn’t hard at all. But hacking up your car is always nerve racking right. The cut template made it really easy tbh. I used tin snips and then a 120 sanding dremel bit to smooth and touch up

How was chopping off the stock axel back? Just as easy as the bumper trim?

Literally took 10 seconds with a sawzall and a metal cutting blade. I would say easy enough

Did the resonator delete with my Remus today. Sounds much much better! Has more tone but it’s not obnoxious nor does it have any drone.

Did you have a shop do your resonator delete?

yes. cut off & weld in a new 3" pipe. Fairly simple job as long as the shop stocks 3" pipe.

I’m waiting on the vrsf dp, so things will get interesting in the next few weeks. I personally will prob keep the resonator to help quit it down just a tad once that’s on. I expect some of this type of sound once that’s done

Plugged the line and zip tied it to the chassis. I wish I would have been able to integrate it and add one for the other side, it really wouldn’t have much function function with this design anyways.

This is maybe to 3k rpm so a little lighter throttle

Don't mind the tips I adjusted them after the video/ pics

A bit loud for my taste. The burbles are pretty loud and sounds like gunshots. Most likely going to tone down the burble settings in the tune.

Vrsf de-cat DP and the exhaust in the video.
