Man. Thanks for this. I was on the edge of getting one. I might just get a super sprint muffler now.

[@marekkondracki88]

Can you say more about noise, cruising 80 mph?

[@Casey_Schmidt]

It’s a very quiet exhaust in my opinion. Even at full throttle it’s very tame. The resonance around 5k rpm is the only weird spot.

[@fetengineer9151]

Hmm not bad. I just might grab one for my E86 coupe.

[@Casey_Schmidt]

@FET Engineer - If you end up getting one, maybe post a video of your installation experience. I would be interested to see how well one of these systems fits up to someone else’s E86.

[@fetengineer9151]

@@Casey_Schmidt trust me brother, after completely watching your video I'm taking my 6spd E86 coupe to a professional installer.

[@Casey_Schmidt]

Good call. Not that the figment on mine was impossible to work with but... it was more work than it needed to be.

[@MrRoyck10]

I would not use a scorpion exhaust on an e86 BMW as can you see the untidy welding, there are essienman exhaust that compliments the e86, however scorpion is a budget option I suppose.

[@Casey_Schmidt]

@CK 888 - You are correct, you get what you pay for.

[@Barriemac1974]

Was looking at this system but that fitment looks poor. Good video though.

[@Casey_Schmidt]

Barrie Macfarlane yeah the fitment isn’t impossibly bad but I think spending the bigger money to have a shop build one from scratch would be the better route in the long run.

[@mammothfire]

A video about an exhaust, and you're not gonna give us sound? dafuq man

[@Casey_Schmidt]

@insomniscient - there is a sound comparison at the end between the original, modified, and scorpion exhaust. Time stamp 27:43

I’m a welder and they look great to me, pick up a tig torch and see if you can do better
