Need someone decent. I want to cut open the rear muffler on my E36 M3 and do a well known modification to it to get some more nice noises from it. Basically, welding, cutting, fabrication. I just want it done with quality materials and neat tidy work. I've seen some horror stories (just poor workmanship) on some of the BMW forums so be good to get a recommendation of someone who does good work. The closer to Dandenong the better.

I've put together a pdf of the process as pics are fun. Only step that is missing is packing it with SS wool.

Thanks guys.

Thanks guys. Spoken with Scott and he's looking into it for me. Someone from the BMW world recommended Andrew from TrackArt too, though I thought he was a cage fabricator rather than exhaust...

Anyhow, I'm sure I've got some good options now.

Yeah must admit mild does give a nice throaty sound alot easier compared to the raspiness of stainless which seems to be a little more temperamental to muffler choice...

Saw my 33 the other day and he had a nice new mild system made up for it...sounded nice...

    • Hi. This is just my curiosity because iam sure the tuner figure something out...but either way i want to ask. The "problem" is that the Nistune ECU (Stagea FW and RB25DET NEO from Stagea) sees many times the speed than the speedo does(he says the speedo show 120 km/h - correct speed and the ECU shows like 510km/h ) I told him that this car/tranny getting speed from rear diff. If iam not mistaken the RB25DET NEO "need" to see tranny speed sensor? (my tranny has the plug for it). So couple of "question" If he connects/wire the speed sensor to the tranny...are the signals gonna intervene and if...what if he disconnects the rear diff one and the speedo stops working? Or the "new" sensor from the tranny "take over" and will not going need the one from diff? As i said i know he figure/get that done...iam just curious to know what are the solutions 🙂 
    • Your IACV is set to idle too low. You need to adjust it via the screw Duncan mentioned. From memory it should be 650rpm with the valve electrics unplugged. What is it trying to idle at with the IACV plugged in?
    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
