    You did a very good job with this, fairly simple and easy to follow. I will say though, that there are parts were your camera has some pretty weird focus issues or something around 18:30. Maybe it was the camera, maybe because you were upside down? Beats me but great job!

    Thanks for your vids. Great info. I just deleted my cats and installed performance headers on my 2003 e46 (325i). I noticed that when I was putting my engine mount back in it wouldn't quite fit because the headers were in the way. I was able to use a hammer and tap the plate down just enough for it to fit. But the header is sitting right on it. Is that normal? I don't remember if the cats were touching the mount or not.

    • @ArekThorne
      @ArekThorne 5 років тому

      catless header will be very very loud, only way to cut the noise down with catless headers is to keep your resonator and muffler on the exhaust system, so that means no straight piping your exhaust system

      The o2 sensor bung locations were not ideal on mine, but they still fit. The welds are nice. I think its a hit or miss, since there's multiple sellers for these on ebay. I got mine from cali, would'nt recommend the ones from china.

    21:06 why would you say that there is exhaust leak? where were you referring?

    • @BackyardWrenchin
      @BackyardWrenchin  8 років тому

      +Jason I had to cut my exhaust flange, rotate it and have it re-welded because i was sent the 330/325i headers instead of the 328i/323i headers where the exhaust flange connecting the header to the rest of the exhaust is oriented differently. I had to cut and rotate so that the holes for the bolts match up. By exhaust leak, i meant that the headers were not yet connected to the rest of the exhaust piping. Just make sure you get the right header for your car, and you wont have to worry about this.
