///M3 Titanium Exhaust

Battle · 08-01-2008, 01:53 AM

Hey guys just wanted to show my exhaust that came in today...I know almost all of te M3 owners are going with Eisenmann Race exhaust, I do love the sound but wanted something lighter and unique....Will install in a couple of weeks followed by videos and installed pics... Please tell me what you think..

Dixis Titanium Exhaust...7.8kg. compared to stocks 25kg. Should be a nice weight saving. Next mode anctiously waiting for is the GruppeM intake, That and the exhaust, pullys with ECU should give me a nice HP and TRQ increase.

Wanted to thank Sam from AutoTalent and Simon for their great customer service and knowledge.

The bends are a bit worrisome no? It doesn't look uniform at all ... unless it doesn't really matter, but I thought it did.

Maybe it is, but I highly doubt that Dixis will make an exhaust with bends that will restrict the flow. Correct me if Im wrong.

They look awesome! Can't wait to see them on the car

montreal red · 08-01-2008, 08:49 AM

wow must have cost a lot of $$$

ihyln · 08-01-2008, 08:53 AM

Vorsteiner sells a TI exhaust for about $3500. I wonder how much this one was...

gadget · 08-01-2008, 08:55 AM

cost please.

Does it come with a warranty, Ti exhausts are more prone to get cracks and failure at the welds.

ihyln · 08-01-2008, 09:00 AM

Yes, TI is prone to crack. Unless you live in a temperate climate with extremely warm winters I'd avoid getting a TI exhaust.

chicagobimmerboy · 08-01-2008, 11:05 AM

I like it, what is the tolerance of that system?
like its tolerance to cracking and other problems.

!Xoible · 08-01-2008, 11:08 AM

balling!!! there's so many welds and bends and what not. this's got to be the less cleanest exhaust made for the car. i hope it sounds good. cant wait to hear it

Well I ddo live in a warm climate, also Dixis is a very reputable tuning company which is known for their excellent exhausts, I would be worrie If I purchased the exhaust from Vorsteiner, which is supposedly made here, not to put down Vorsteiner but I wont buy an exhaust from a company that makes aero kits.

Good question I will find out about the warranty, am not worried cause of the companys reputation for making excellent exhausts for 15+ years.

Dixis is hand made to order in Japan and was shipped via air for $4800 total.

I have to agree with this. Can all those welds in the bends be good? It would seem to me that a smooth pipe would have much better flow....

monsta · 08-01-2008, 12:34 PM

hurry up and install...dying to hear it!!

argonboy · 08-01-2008, 12:43 PM

Nice exhaust. I like that it's tucked up transversely, it doesn't stick out at all like the setups with two individual mufflers. It's also pretty good value for a Japanese Ti exhaust, other companies will sell stainless with Ti tips for that money.

I'm waiting for a GruppeM exhaust & CAI to arrive in a couple of weeks, looking forward to the cracks in the Ti!
