Default Custom Exhaust by FluidMotorUnion. Lots of Pics

Just had FluidMotorUnion here in Chicago build my E46 M3 custom exhaust. Thought I would post some pictures of their work. Wouldn't of chosen anyone else besides them. Top notch!

Was aiming for a both loud and quiet exhaust and they pulled it off. Zero rasp.

Includes:

- Supersprint V1 Stepped Headers with 2.5" flanges with V-bands
- Dual 2.5" to 3" Y-Pipe
- Catless 3" Single Pipe with 2 Vibrant Pass-Through Resonators and a DMH low-profile EVC
- 3" to OEM muffler Y-Pipe
- OEM muffler with 83mm Tips (Just had to replicate my old Eisenmann Le Mans tips, I loved those)

On to the pics. Credit to Andrew Krok at FMU for the pictures/videos. Great guy! Also some pictures of my 4.10's getting installed too.



















































And the final product, in bad quality. Will update with a good video with the valve both opened and closed.


Another video on the dyno. Hard to tell since its enclosed. Won't post up the numbers yet as the Evolve tune needs to be tweaked a bit.


One more after dyno tune session.

If it ain't lightweight, it ain't the right weight.

Wow!!! A valve sounds ideal, smooth and refined when you want it, but then loud and raw whenever your in the mood. Nice job OP. Post that comparison video!!
