hey i was thinking about doing something like this however i hate the obnoxious 4cyl cold start it sounds like a honda civic. at 5:25 you say that a tune can fix it. can you please tell me how. thanks
Ya so when you buy a tune usually the tuner gives you some options: rear o2 delete, cold star delete, burble tune etc. When you purchase the tune you just ask the tuner to remove the cold start since the only point of it is to warm up the Cats. With my tune, BM3, their are settings the use can tweak and I basically have an on/off button if I want coldstart or not.
Have not tried the pipe without a tune. CEL will def turn on due to O2 readings but idk if that would cause limp mode. Get a code reader from Amazon and it will show you all issues
They are easy to break after a certain point . which seems to be about 350 wheel hp/tq. The problem is thet get near 0 oil pressure under high Gs. However going cat-less and a simple tune won't throw you over that limit.
@@alejoloja2203 It is not necessary, but you will have a CEL unless you get O2 spacers or code it out. You will also not benefit from most of the power gains, just the sound gains.
I had a question. At minute 4:36 when you compared the old cat to the new one, the new one has a pipe connected to it. Did you buy that or was it from the car ??? I just got a 328i and I want to put this exact one on just not sure how.
E85 is probably a special tune option. Bolt on parts don’t require a special type of fuel. With minimal parts installed, for example if you have a down pipe only with a tune you can easily run the 93 octane only tune to get the most out of your down pipe or full exhaust set up.
Hey I just bought this downpipe and I can’t decide if I should install it myself or pay a shop to do it. How hard was it and how long did it take? And do you have an upgraded front mount intercooler or are you running stage 2 without one?
I have an upgraded front mount. If you have all the tools you need and a friend or two that have experience working on cars go for it yourself. its not hard just annoying to line up. I don't remember how long it took but just have a day planed out for it bc I might tell you 2hrs but it takes up 6 for you to do it
DaniSkander I’m now realizing that I have a leak at the mid pipe clamp and I’m thinking at the turbo clamp as well. Did you replace the gasket for the turbo clamp? Is that necessary?
That with a catless downpipe is my ideal setup but the quad exhaust is too expensive for me. You will have a CEL with no cats but it's not harmful. The coldstart shouldn't be too bad since you have a muffler.
its not all that expensive, but if you cant afford it dont get one. Met many BMW owners who force buy it and cant keep up with either payments, maintenance, etc. If you have the money I definitely would go for it but not a 328i get a 335i
I bought it pre-owned and it came with free maintenance for 3yrs. Nothing really went wrong other than an axle but that was my fault. As long as you do everything youself you should be solid
I have the same car 428i , I kinda kinda regret not going up to a 435i but I was rushed into getting it. I mean I can’t complain it’s a pretty fast car esp from launch control any thoughts on your car?
If you are doing the calculations by hand I think you are forgetting that normal fuel also has 10% ethanol content. So 4 gal of E85 is 4*.85 = 3.4 gallons of ethanol 11.6 gal of gas is 11.6*.10= 1.16 gallons of ethanol so now you have 4.56 gal of ethanol out of 11.6 which 29% Ethanol (E29) However when you are filling up you usually have some fuel left so you are adding a little more ethanol than you actually need making up for that 1%
5:23 for cold start
5:58 for drive test
Do i need VRSF 4" Turbo to Down Pipe Gasket, and VRSF 4" Turbo to Downpipe V-Band Exhaust Clamp or i can use the oem ones, thanks

I’m thinking about getting a down pipe for my 2016 328i any suggestions I should do after I get it installed??
A tune for sure
dude broke the bracket
I really like the sound of exhaust but the pops are way too loud for me. K have same exact car and want the sound minus the pops, is that possible?
Ya you can edit the pops via the tune
After installing the pipe my car has went into limp mode will a bootmod3 fix that
Have not tried the pipe without a tune. CEL will def turn on due to O2 readings but idk if that would cause limp mode. Get a code reader from Amazon and it will show you all issues
hey brother I have a question from the donwpipe, I want to put mine one. Did a check engine light turn on your car?
No. It will not turn on unless you do not have a tune. Tune your car then do the catless downpipe
@@xxwestcoastkillaxx393 what tune do I run before the castles downpipes?
I’m debating on doing this but I’ve heard these engines are easy to break and can’t hold anything over stock.

It was on the car from the midpipe I ordered but stock one works too
What exhaust setup were you running?
So if I get a catless downpipe will I have to put E85? Or just premium gas?

@@mikefetters6674 late answer but Yes it is necessary to replace all the gasket
What happens if I don’t tune my car will it be super obnoxious ? I have the awe quad exhaust and the performance mid pipe

can i completely turn burbles off?
Yes
How like did it take you brother??
Is this car expensive to maintain? I have a v6 mustang ima get this instead

Keep money set aside for when it needs work. Expensive? Not cheap cars to fix.
B58 is the way to go, I am planning to do that myself lol
I have the same car 428i , I kinda kinda regret not going up to a 435i but I was rushed into getting it. I mean I can’t complain it’s a pretty fast car esp from launch control any thoughts on your car?
What I always tell myself is at least the 328i has better weight distribution XD
Same problem here!!!! 428i owner
Is the car fast? My buddy has a 435i and I find it fast. Will the 328i be capable of achieving 335/435i speed and torque with a tune?
Im actually as fast as my buddy that has a 440i with stage 1 tune, Sorry for the late reply
how’s the smell with the downpipe,and could you still get pops with just downpipe and muffler delete?
Since I use E30 the smell of ethanol is more prominent and I don't mind it
what cable did you use for bm3?
its in the link of my BM3 agent video, but any obd2 cable should work
What do I need to do to make my car sound like that?
you need a bmw
sry for the late reply, basically a straight pipe (all I have is an AWE resonator)
@@DaniSkander the exhaust line is 80 millometer???
What is your exhaust set up? Is it straight piped?
The exhaust line is 80 mm???
Does a catless downpipe increase the fuel comsumption in normal driving?
No, just emissions.
Is it possible to put the downpipe on a f30 320i?
yeah!
How did u get rid the check engine light ?
With the tune
What apps are you using for map on mobile phone?

Hey, do you think a catless downpipe will change the sound much on a bmw 320i with b48 engine? With stock exhaust
Nah wouldn’t change it by much stock exhaust really limits the sound .
@@ChivoLife i got a catless downpipe, and the sound became totally different. Its actually quit good sound with some burbles too
Sorry just saw this but ya even with stock exhaust it will change it a lot. Especially when valve opens
isn’t e30 5 gallons of e85?
If you are doing the calculations by hand I think you are forgetting that normal fuel also has 10% ethanol content.
So 4 gal of E85 is 4*.85 = 3.4 gallons of ethanol

Hey guys, do i need to ecu tune my car or can i just decatt the car , whill it get limp mode/check engine?
It is recommended but no your car won't be in limp mode.
what tune setup do you have?
Bootmod3 Stage 2 on E30
DaniSkander how much was that?
Wat kind of rims are those
Enkei RS05RRs. I went for a square setup with 4 fronts but I wish I went with 4 rears for wider tires. That would require front camber to fit tho.
