I've got the exact setup on my interlagos 92 m3 and I absolutely love it. The low grunt and mid to high notes just resonates like a super bike. Give it some time, I'm sure you'll start to appreciate it
Hey Matt, I highly recommend reinstalling the electrical bonding straps on the exhaust. Those bonding straps are installed to protect the car’s electrical system.
Matt, after you’ve run it in for a while, let someone else drive it, while you check & record the fly by’s from outside the car ! 😁, Trust me your tune about it will change immediately. 😉, Akra is the Best for the E92
Watching you struggle to put that exhaust on was so relatable. I want to switch exhausts on my M3 for one with a slightly higher pitch than my Borla one but I don't want to struggle and drop the stupid pipes on my head for 2 hours.
Great choice with this exhaust. I loved selling BMWs and loved the e9x m3 as much as any car Bmw has ever made. This and the e39 m5 are two greats that I am lucky to have driven numerous times.
I run an Akra on my Audi RS4 (Europe) and love it. Smoother sound with great tone on the high revving engine, I also loved the Vanguard Ti system you tried out on the E92 M3 as well. But just knew that this setup wasn't going to be your thing; as you appear to like a heavier tone with more volume. Akrapovic should really be the default 'sports exhaust' option, for OEM car manufacturers, they're too tame for most people to be considered aftermarket.
Matt... if your bored... please consider doing yourself (and every E9X M3 owner) a solid and install Schrick 292 cams! I for one would get blood knuckle smashing the like button!
I run RPK Sport mid section and Corsa mufflers with upgraded tips. The sound is unreal. Tame when you want it to be but an absolute monster when you get on it or rev. I think you’d love the combo.
I thought I sounded pretty good... tough to tell with the acoustics of where you video'd / recorded the audio from. Love the 8 cylinder brute muscle tone that is a dying breed. Thanks for the content 🤘
Firstly, fantastic product placement of the GT3 RS. Secondly do let it break in and it does sound great at higher revs, as a few others have said once it’s broken in get someone else to do the drive by and you can then take it all in
I have a problem with mosmatic products I have a hp washer with 170bar and≈7 gpm and there is no 150 size nozzle and mosmatic do not make one unfortunately I might have to reuse the one front my kränzle ws rp 1600 pressure washer but the thread is if I am not mistaken is NTP not G
Surprised you never had one on it already, would love one for my E92. Not the loudest exhaust but the lightest and best quality. The Ti tips look so much better than the CF ones as well imo
Hey nice Video and also very nice Sound on this M3 E92...U save weight ( 53% going from 45 KG to 21 KG, the sound as many people comment here is great and also u found out that the fitment is great, so basically the Product is perfect. Of course , u could arguee about the Pricing but the M3 is also not the cheapest Car on the Planet, also wasn't the cheapest Price when it was launched back then, right ?! Also u should concern that, in Europe, the Akrapovic Exhaust once they are used and gets sold on Ebay are very Price Strong...after driving 3-5 Years maybe u loose 1000-1500 € on what u paid when the Exhaust System was new...so u don't really lose money on this Akrapovic Exhaust because u gt a lot back when u selling them used, whenever u need the money. I don't get it why u multiply times said u dont like Akra Titanium Sound but still got it, but of course taste is always different. The Product by itsself is perfect. Nice Garage btw. Stay safe and enjoy the Sound: Greetings from Germany
Hello friend. Just a tip, that doesen't matter anymore. Whenever you are installing some titanium parts, that gona recive some sort of heat, you should use gloves during installation. The dirt and sweat in you hand leave marks in the metal when hot. Even if you wipe it all with some sort of cleaner. Appreciated the video tho, good Job!
Beautiful piece of hardware, great exhaust to lose weight and add power while staying under db restrictions. Curious as to how the slip on alone would sound with the dinan middle section. The complete evo is very tame.
Put one on my car last summer except it was on jack stands. Completely miserable. Sound wise I like it. Cold start drone is real. Sort of weak in the low RPMs sound wise IMO
Nice video. Unrelated question for you, if you don't mind. I need a new strut mount on my E36 M3. Do you recommend going OEM only, or is MOOG or KYB acceptable? Thanks.
As expected, sounds like a tin can. Dinan can’t be beat on this car Imo. I’ve had 11 exhaust setups on my e92.. and one id really like to see you try (which you’re going to think I’m crazy) is the gintani sport. It’s similar to the dinan with less drone and more refinement up top. Gintani doesn’t offer it on their site anymore, but does do built to order at the same price as their old retail. Edit: I had it paired with a dinan xpipe. Sounds amazing. Currently have gintani quad resonated xpipe with dinan rear.
I've had this car for 12 year now and had 9 different exhaust set ups. Believe it or not, if you want a Muscle car sounds exhaust. Sport Cats, Resonator and Magnaflow is the combo.... But then you are driving around with Magnaflow on an M3 which let's be real here... Not cool. Sport Cats, Resonator and Meisterschaft is a great combo probably the best one.. Eisenman Sport with just a Resonator is great as well makes the car into a screamer.
@@Jamie-Evo I think you misinterpreted his comment. Matt always asks for support by paying the shipping. I think this guy was saying he’s willing to buy them and pay the shipping that Matt usually refers to.
You change exhausts like I change my watch straps!
Yes i changed mine to a full Fabspeed exhaust. Incredible sound, great in the vert
Sounds pretty damn good to me.
I've got the exact setup on my interlagos 92 m3 and I absolutely love it. The low grunt and mid to high notes just resonates like a super bike. Give it some time, I'm sure you'll start to appreciate it
had the Akra evolution exhaust on my E92 M3. Beautiful craftsmanship and sound.
Fit and finish spectacular... it’s Matty approved!
Hey Matt I still have the akra evo I bought from you on my F82, been awhile now
Gotta love Mat. The only TH-camr without a fucking armytrix
Junk...ha...
My god how does he keep everything so damn clean
Hey Matt,
I highly recommend reinstalling the electrical bonding straps on the exhaust. Those bonding straps are installed to protect the car’s electrical system.

Have to agree Matt, i think your assessment is spot on
Akrapovic Evolution exhausts are the best performance exhaust for any sportscar, but it's also the most expensive.
Watching you struggle to put that exhaust on was so relatable. I want to switch exhausts on my M3 for one with a slightly higher pitch than my Borla one but I don't want to struggle and drop the stupid pipes on my head for 2 hours.

“God dangit, idiot” never gets old Matt 😆

Sounds great. It’s got that metallic raw round to it, bet it sounds good under load at higher RPMs

Sounds as good as it looks.

Lil BMW bros get some love today.
Jeez... This sounds amazing!

Sounds amazing! Needs good 1K miles and a nice hot day to really hear it.
Looking Good Looking Good!!
Firstly, fantastic product placement of the GT3 RS. Secondly do let it break in and it does sound great at higher revs, as a few others have said once it’s broken in get someone else to do the drive by and you can then take it all in
Sounds awesome
I think it sounds pretty good!
I have the same set on my E90M3. Sounds great to me.
Now that you have the AR long tube headers try using just the rear section.
I like the sound.
Early, Hey Matt! Love the content
love the akra exhaust
14:00 Matt: the fit and finish is next level
14:24 Matt beats on pipes to try and get them to fit
😂
It sounds amazing.
Not a big fan of the sound at first but it’s growing on me the more I play it back. But I think the dinan exhaust note is way better.
I have a problem with mosmatic products
I have a hp washer with 170bar and≈7 gpm and there is no 150 size nozzle and mosmatic do not make one unfortunately
I might have to reuse the one front my kränzle ws rp 1600 pressure washer but the thread is if I am not mistaken is NTP not G
Dang that sounds super good.
Seriously interested in buying the used dinan muffler
Surprised you never had one on it already, would love one for my E92. Not the loudest exhaust but the lightest and best quality. The Ti tips look so much better than the CF ones as well imo
He has said before that he’s not a huge fan of the sound of Ti exhausts. Guess he is willing to experiment?
@@joetacchino4470 tbf i don't watch every single video so Havnt noticed that before
Sounds like music to my ears
26:18 wow that induction sound!
I like the sound, but I'm not into crackly loud. It has a nice performance tone, and looks way better.
You should get a Kreissieg exhaust for your e92

Greetings from Germany
eisenman and supersprint are best sounding exhaust for bmws . akra is perfect too ! cool video !
Yeah. I still have new supersprint sections 1 and 2 that I never got to put on my e46 before it was totalled
Damn the car looks so good... sounds good, but the eventuri is the thing that kicks butt the most.
Hello friend. Just a tip, that doesen't matter anymore. Whenever you are installing some titanium parts, that gona recive some sort of heat, you should use gloves during installation. The dirt and sweat in you hand leave marks in the metal when hot. Even if you wipe it all with some sort of cleaner. Appreciated the video tho, good Job!
I have a e92 m3 as well straight piped with the cheap megan exhaust and sounds way more aggressive then that. you should try it.
I just bought a used Akrapovic Evo for my M3. It doesn’t have the clamps though. Are the akra clamps titanium and special?
You’re making me wanna own one of these cars one day lol
Sounds great to me. I wonder what the weight savings is. 🤔
50lbs
Sounds good
Try out the kränzle ws rp 1600
Probably shout out the ground strap back on it serves a purpose
What do you think of the latest Rupes uno polishes?
Beautiful piece of hardware, great exhaust to lose weight and add power while staying under db restrictions. Curious as to how the slip on alone would sound with the dinan middle section. The complete evo is very tame.
I love the way that sounds, but I tend to prefer cars that are not as loud as you prefer.
its more of a higher rpm exhaust, sounds good still
It's funny how it's changed the whole sound so drastically, no drone just high rpm rasp and rumble
Matt can I get you’re old exhaust please. 🏴 Do you mind shipping to Scotland? 👌🏻
The amount of will power he has to not say 14,000 curse words is mind blowing. haha
Put one on my car last summer except it was on jack stands. Completely miserable. Sound wise I like it. Cold start drone is real. Sort of weak in the low RPMs sound wise IMO
The plenum makes up for the lack from the Akra. Atleast it’s lighter than the Dinan.
what do you think of the turner titanium exhaust?
I've had a few titanium exhausts on this car. I don't like Ti for exhausts. It always sounds thin to me.
@@ObsessedGarage thanks, I almost ordered a titanium exhaust but I guess I’ll look elsewhere- I trust your judgement/style. What’s your top 2 non Ti?
With all them tools and no exhaust hanger removal pliers?
Perfect.
what's the best exhaust for GT3/RS in your view? High pitch and loudness-wise?
Matt: Well I don't really know what I'm doing. haha best reasoning.
Matt I knew you hated it within 3 seconds of the engine starting. Not enough “nasty” right?
Try out cat pressure washers
They are Japanise and stainless steel
Nice video. Unrelated question for you, if you don't mind. I need a new strut mount on my E36 M3. Do you recommend going OEM only, or is MOOG or KYB acceptable? Thanks.
Try a bomiz exhaust
Try bimmerworld x pipe with your dinan axleback
Titanium always has that tin sound. It would probably sound better without the resonators
Try Active Autowerke’s exhaust.
Is your e92 tuned matt?
Yes, with Alpine MSS tune.
meisterschaft gt2 is the way to go
I want for the lightweight plus the amazing fit and finish with a OEM+ look. But it doesn't sound as good as a high quality non titanium exhaust
Try meisterschaft, I love mines.
I’m gonna have to say it man it’s too bad you didn’t drive it straight piped just to see what it sounded like Matt!
Definitely tame but no rasp.
I don't care what you say the Akra exhaust sounds really damn good just too quiet with cats and resonators.
Sounds kinda raspy which I'm not used to from an e92
Needs more loud. 🔥
A BMW exhaust video.... the journey continues:)
Are there downpipes on this?
No, it's naturally aspirated.
Try Armytrix
Definitely tinny, personally I do not like the sound.
Call him MachineGun Matt from now on 😂
As expected, sounds like a tin can. Dinan can’t be beat on this car Imo. I’ve had 11 exhaust setups on my e92.. and one id really like to see you try (which you’re going to think I’m crazy) is the gintani sport.

Edit: I had it paired with a dinan xpipe. Sounds amazing. Currently have gintani quad resonated xpipe with dinan rear.
sounds close to stock, super sprints are nice but meh. still overall it looks good.
It's really easy to say Akrapovic, just imagine there is a h on the end, Akrapovich ( aˈkrapɔʋitʃ] ).
I've had this car for 12 year now and had 9 different exhaust set ups. Believe it or not, if you want a Muscle car sounds exhaust. Sport Cats, Resonator and Magnaflow is the combo....

I want those tips when you get rid of them and I'll pay the shipping.... Matt
Wants something for free but can't even ask nicely..

EPA be sitting here trying to figure out what yoy got going on
Sell me the akra when your done! Ty! LOL
Needs headers
"frickin!"
Those are not the same tool, one is a high speed ratchet and the other is a right angle impact. Low torque vs high torque tools.
I'm talking about the stubby and the right angle impact.
