Installed new engine mounts, the down/midpipes, did an oil change and installed the new lip over the last 2 days.

Amazing builds, OP! Would love to hear exhaust sound clips for both the E63 and the Z31!

Some better photos of the lip and the prototype ECE engine mounts I am testing out.

Looks great man! Do you have a link for that front lip?

How much louder are the downpipes than standard? Any chance of some videos at all? Cars looking absolutely awesome

RVAE34

I have a cold start video ill get on YouTube. It's definitely louder but not too much. Sounds so ferocious now when getting on it especially with gear changes.

Went out early to shoot the AMG this morning. Very pleased with how these turned out. I am so glad it didn't sell!

carlos85

Did you ever get around to doing the vids? I’m curious how much louder it is

RVAE34

Here is a cold start.

I used to think coffee was the best thing in the morning, but no... this.

BTW you are a car nut RVA. I almost want to drive down there to check out all of your toys, and maybe get some Raising Cains!

Just.... amazing. True German muscle right here, she sounds great!

carlos85

sounds awesome, not all that much louder than standard on a cold start which is good. Is it a lot louder when you are chasing the throttle?

cheers

The audible increase is significant across the board but most notably at wot and especially with gear changes at wot. It barks at you with ferocity. At first I thought about the secondary resonators delete but I think it's perfect. Very aggressive and deep with no rasp but not over the top. It's been breaking necks since I added the downpipes when I get on it.

carlos85

i’m convinced! That’s me saving for some of these downpipes haha... sorry for being a pain with all the questions.

sounds grizzly... great work on the hunt to find it.

not bothering me at all. This forum has been a great resource for me and I'm more than happy to pay it back.

I'd argue that these downpipes were some of the best money spent on the car and imo, the premium for the hjs cats is well worth it.

Wow such a rare unicorn in mint condition!! I can't stop looking at it. Such a beautiful beast!!

I finally decided to give the KW suspension a try. Ordered the kit today. Excited to compare the two after almost a year with the H&R's.

juststeve

will be interested to see if the KW kit works out for you.

If you don't keep these wheels (which you should because of how rare and special they are), then please let me know, and I may buy them from you. But I really hope you keep them, as they are very unique on this one of a kind car.

RVAE34

I decided to keep them on and love them now. I'd never sell though.

Put the car on the dyno again. Was around 95 degrees so not ideal but still made 604hp/714 ft lbs peak.

I installed the KW HAS kit a few weeks ago. It's so much better than H&R that it's ridiculous. No more bounciness. My wife was even amazed.

The install is tricky because you need to knock the lower spring perch off the struts first. Seems many don't know this as the instructions aren't clear nor are they in English. It also appears that they are welded but they come off which a few good hits.

I set them at their lowest setting which matches the H&R height.

Couldn't be more pleased with the car now. The ride quality was the only thing less than perfection.

Looking to get some HRE FF11's but not sure what width and offset. I want 19 front 20 rear and was thinking 10/11. Not sure of offsets though. Anyone have some input here?
