I've had the Evolve Stage 2 map on my E92 M3 since late 2020, the GTS DCT Flash and servotronic tweak. I bought the Eventuri Plenum and airbox lid to add to the intake I already bought (I was one of the first). I was already running an Akrapovic Evolution full titanium exhaust on the car and although never 100% blown away by the sound of the Akra, I'm actually glad I kept i on instead of looking for noisier options, because in low crawling and cruising speeds I get the deep bass sound of the Akra, but when I open up, the Eventuri Plenum noise takes over. It really is such a transformation of the car having a stage 2 and deleting the primary cats. I'd highly recommend it to every owner. Drive one thats been done and see how sluggish it makes your stock car seem.
Purchased the full carbon plenum setup a couple of months ago. Having it installed tomorrow. Cannot wait! The stage 2 cat delete and tune sound awesome!
Evolve, I don't own a BMW car yet but when I do it's gonna have your aftermarket parts for sure, especially the intakes🔥✌️ , but overall I love your work and your sharing of knowledge
This car sounds incredible! When I owned my E46 M3, I thought it was peak M3, but I'm coming around to the E92 with the V8 and DCT. It's a very nice car and the mods you have done are tasteful and impressive as well. Another home run for Evolve.
I have a 2012 M3 that I bought new, it has 213,000 miles on it and still going strong. The only things that I had to replace is the Throttle actuators and one coil pack. Best car that I have ever had, will never part with it.
I absolutely love your video; After watching this, I have no other choice, but to must get your product. I my myself own 2013 E92 M3 Competition; DCT, Melbourne Red. ...The M Performance Exhaust + Test Pipes sound just like you said on your video, and I absolutely love a manual, but the DCT is just a must for this car. Those upshifts and downshifts are unbelievably good sounding I can't wait to get your Evolve Cat Delete/Test Pipes. Sincerely, Gezim Rexhepi
Man those down shifts are sharp and bang on 👌 and those test pipes gave the car the character it is I love the current set up on the car... and the color 😊 💯💯🌶🇿🇦
@@EvolveAutomotive 100% i have the same car but e93 more than enough power for the rd and track. Too much power you means you just come off the track and i to the gravel lol. I've been trying to do somoe research into racing cams. Is that a good a upgrade or too pricey???
I can attest that the test pipes and the tune is definitely worth the investment along with a valvetronic rear section, sounds and feels 👌🏽💯 You new design is pretty sleek too 🔥 The Eventuri plenum and intake are certainly next on the list and will complete my build!
Sounds a beast! 😁 I especially love the intake noise! I think the exhaust is a tad too loud after the primary cat removals, and probably wouldn't pass any track static sound tests though! lol. Oh and the car looks fantastic too 😎 Also very interesting to see the changes in the map. Pity deleting any cats is (or is supposed to be) an MoT failure...
@@EvolveAutomotive hopefully I get around to buying your carbon plenum too. 😂I can only imagine how much better it sounds. The stock one already sounds really good
As with anything, the delta is more important than the final figure, and dragy data (coming from a trusted source) is the verification of real world performance.
Another informative video, back to back dyno runs for a direct demonstration of gains is something I always value. Not that crazy about all the American terminology though.
I'm in agreement - excellent, methodical testing with the same Dyno used for repeatability. But as Feoffle said I'm not keen on the American terminology either. While I fully get the requirements to be understood by the target audience but maybe using the British terminology followed by the American translation. Before long we will all be using American car nomanclature and British nomanclature will be lost. It's bad enough Word constantly correcting my correctly spelt word because I've used an 's' instead of a effing 'Zee' 😭 and my kids keep using American terms... Excellent video content once again and the car looks and sounds mega. 😊
Having such a High Redline (8’300 RPM’s) and with the Decat and tune 460Hp to the crank I think it’ll beat a brand new 10 Speed Automatic Ford Mustang GT… Honestly sounds like a hell of a race that I want to see!
I wish the aftermarket had other front lower carbon options instead of the horrendous ‘fangs’ which seem to be on all of them. I do not like the crazy and out there GTS spoiler either. Something nice, minimal, and goes from one end of the front bumper to the other.
I have a very similar looking leak going on with my DCT after 10k miles since the last complete DCT service. I’d love to see a video on how you resolve your leak.
@@EvolveAutomotive yeah I checked the orings at the transmission thermostat and found that one of the supply lines from the top of the transmission to the thermostat is weeping. The orings from the thermostat to and from the cooler are perfectly intact without leaks. As is the side pan and mechatronics oring. Bottom pan appears to be ok and all the fasteners are snug. I suspect the fluid from thermostat oring is getting blown across the pan to make it look worse.
Very common source of DCT Leaks. That O-ring shrinks over time. It looks like a mechatronics or pan leak, but it is coming from the top of the DCT and that O-ring. The new O-ring is much thicker. I think it is an expensive repair, since you might need to drop the DCT. Fix any driveshaft clunk at the same time (guibo and center bearing).
hey ive been watching you from Canada for a while now. Currently own a frozen blue edition 2013 e92. My coils starting to fail would love to see you guys come up with those in the future
There are OEM and less expensive OE coil packs for the S65 V8. If you have the tools it isn't too bad. It is very difficult to get to the rear coils on both sides. Check YT videos. Coils are super tight to remove...don't use a coat hanger. You have to remove the plastic covers above the cylinder heads. Be gentle, since the plastic gets brittle due to heat and might crack. You have to remove the cabin air filter covers and another piece near the firewall to get to the back coils. If you replace the coils also do the spark plugs (every 35k miles). NGK OE Spark Plugs. You might as well also return the cabin air filters by Corteco OE and BMW or BMC air filter...since the air box has to be removed. Might as well install the Eventuri carbon fiber air intake and air box lid, plus the new CF ducts. BMW increased the prices of the coils in the last few years x8. New coils help with a smooth idle...but the defective Idle Control Valve and Fuel Tank Breather Valve are the real culprit.
@@nycshelbygt500 Thank you very much for the info. I already got the idle control valve and fuel tank breather replaced last year. Thank again for the helpful tips
@@EvolveAutomotive appreciate the delta is the important part… but surely that dyno is optimistic? That can’t be an accurate reading of the car’s true BHP. Not hating, love your content, just a bit confused as never seen normal readings like that. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@11clarkm we have seen healthy cars make this before on dyno dynamics. At the end of the day we only care about the delta and the dragy runs. Is it actually faster. Yes. End of story
We have never seen extra power on the dyno with underdriven pulley. Maybe we can run the test again and video it. Would like to test a light weight flywheel for sure.

E92 M3 is a stunning design.
@@EvolveAutomotive Yes it just needs a small duck tail lol
Japan red looks sick. Nice mods and spot on tuning. The plenum sounds mad, it will be interesting to see how it sounds with an intake upgrade.
Sound with the intake is very similar as the Plenum is making so much noise, but we should gain some more power and a sharper throttle response!
those downshifts sound naughty, and carbon plenum noise never gets old!
Purchased the full carbon plenum setup a couple of months ago. Having it installed tomorrow. Cannot wait! The stage 2 cat delete and tune sound awesome!

Before any tune do the test pipes give a check engine light
They do yes after a bit of driving.

I have a very similar looking leak going on with my DCT after 10k miles since the last complete DCT service. I’d love to see a video on how you resolve your leak.

The Evolve stage 2 software won't keep the emissions monitors ready..ugh.
What are the penaties in the UK like for deleting primary emissions controls like cats? In some parts of the world they're very steep.
Alot if the companies the best ones say they get 30bhp too from downpipes
Hi guys. Do you know the sound decibels near the redline?
I can have you tune mine in the USA right? I just got some testpipes on the car and I need a good tune.
Yes for sure. We tune more E92 M3s in the USA than we do over here!
Hi Imran great video as usual, what’s happening with the blue Monte Carlo m3 ? I hope from you soon
Rear subframe is currently being held hostage by a powdercoaters 😩
Can you make me a version of these with resonators? I have MPE so don’t want full volume
Will the car fail an MOT with this, having removed the primary cats?
So refreshing to hear a proper tune without "farts"
Drivability is always our main focus when it comes to ECU tuning!
So I could use an e85 flex fuel kit, keep my cats and not suffocate, and get the same power as test pipes?
Why is the car so high at stock? Is it because it’s limited edition? I thought the E92 only left the factory with 414bhp?
All cars have a variance as said, we see between 410-430hp for a stock car that is performing as it should.
