x5m oem exhaust mod

E90/E92 m3 guys have been hacking open the oem exhaust and modding .

OEM Exhaust mod by Bimmersport Automotive - BMW M3 Forum (E90 E92)
REVIEW: Bypass OEM Exhaust Mod - BMW M3 Forum (E90 E92)
E92 M3 OEM Exhaust Mod..... - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum - E90Post.com

anyone willing to try or know how the inside piping of the stock exhaust is?

With the Akra system completely bypassing the muffler i'm sure we could get similar results by rewelding the oem exhaust.

I think I could try this, I would need a welder but thater pretty easy. One thing tho, the interior ipipe has a gate on it that gees open on pressing the M Mode buttonl. so we would need to attned to that issues.

On my GT3 pictured in the sig, it had the same thing. We were able to cut a wire to get it to stay open. But I Dont remember what it was. Yes I am sure that gate is controlled electronically. Somebody has to do the research, but I looked underneath and you can see the gate valve. It looks like some kind of valve on a Turbo I used to have.
