In one fell swoop (this Saturday), I was able to finish fitting the wheels and install my new exhaust, a Berk Full Race: “This full system includes a mid pipe featuring dual 2.5″ tubing and dual resonators, a 3″ Y-pipe and a dual 80mm tip muffler delete.” Quite a lot of work for one day, but at least the major mods are all taken care of. <\/p>\n
Great quality and detail in the construction:<\/p>\n

Doing this job on the floor of my home’s garage with jackstands would have been beyond miserable. Back in my youth, this is what I would have done. Now, I just pay. <\/p>\n Actually, Ken was cool enough to let me give him a hand with the install. It was nice to wield quality tools (Snap-On) and realize the convenience of a lift. I wouldn’t even have been able to do this at home, because BMW used torx screws for the chassis brace, which I have no tools for. <\/p>\n Here’s the car waiting in a bay. <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Up in the air:<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n A look at the stock exhaust:<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n A look at no exhaust:<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Midpipes in:<\/p>\n
