Yes, i know....my exhaust sounds godly...and yes i know...its still slow...but chances are its faster than just about every other non swapped E30 in here...haha..info about car is on my VB garage and at http://cardomain.com/id/kiznile
Edit: for the record that is far from the top speed...i was just on a two lane road with light traffic...i have had it almost bouncing redline in 5th gear at about 145 coming over pacheco pass (gravity FTMFW)

heh i'm still surprised how strong she runs with the mileage thats on her... were you tapping the rev limiter or do you tap the gas mid shift?? love to see an outside view as your exhaust sounds pretty nasty...
i'll have to get a video of a couple pulls in my car sometime soon...
yep, strong as ever...im sure im down 10-15hp due to mileage but it still runs strong as fawk
bouncing the rev limitter...kinda easy with quicker than stock gear ratios and a 5300 rpm lol on downshifts i rev match as everyone should but im sure you saw that
ya outside its about 500% louder lol..almost no harmonics at cruising speed but at WOT its piercingly loud outside

This is kind of what it sounds like from out side except this on an M20B25. Kyles exhuast used to be mine until I did my M50 swap. You can also see my first test drives in my M50 swap E30 when you click on Kyles video links
yep stock is 4600...its built for gas mileage and TQ...it has a tiny little cam and single valve springs...this engine wont be around much longer...oops...i mean...

That's awesome man. Too bad you don't have any godly drum and bass head banging or civic's with brembo brakes and GT wings. On a side note, that E30 on Laguna sounds amazing, my friend has a similar exhaust note on his car it's loud as hell. Muahahaha...

no, in this vid its 29 seconds, but from a hard standing start it's about 26, i have clocked it before...this was just on a rough bouncy road with traffic, i even passed another car in that vid...i wasnt WOT 100% of the time...
i bet money that your E36 cant even come close to beating this thing to 110, as i just beat my friends 98 328iS with intake and exhaust to 120
alex was there too and alex was pulling away from me once we hit about 95 mph with his M50 E30
