ok, my extractors are getting fitted tomorrow, they are cutting off the original final 2 into 1 cone that has a 2inch diameter and replacing it with a 2 1/2 inch one to suite the rest of my system. Ill let u all know how it goes.

Hey pipols, i got my extractors fitted last Friday, and i can only describe them as excellent, definetly more tork in the low to mid rev range, and it 'seems' to go harder in the higher end of the rev range as well, they allso enlarged the final few inches of the extractors to 2.5 inches.

cool greg, my exhaust is a little louder at idle, and a bit more throatier on acceleration, but i only have the standard exhaust with standard cat, with a lukey sports muffler, it seems that my standard exhaust is 214 inch in diamater, is that the standard factory size? im planning oh a high flow cat, and a 212 inch system soon, or maybe even a 3 inch, but dont know if the noise will be to much if i went the 3.

dont go 3 inch u will lose performance most likely cos lack of back pressure! keep it at 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 ", wat kind of lukey muffler is it ? get a hi flo cat as well, catalytic converters are so bad, mine is flanged and wen i take it off and put the pipe there it makes a huge difference.

there are other ways round buying a high flow cat, they are very restrictive and pratically useless after 60000k's neways. Apparently i read somewhere that a well tuned rb engine will still pass an emissions test without one? dont know how true that is.

my car came with a HKS 2 1/2 inch Super Drager exhaust, the extractors are "Coby" brand, ordered from www.partsco.com in New Zealand i think. I modified the final 2 into 1 section of the extractors to be 2 1/2 inch diameter to match my exhaust system.

    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!
