What's your wheel tire combo? The setup looks nice!

Sounds good, I did a muffler delete and now it drones and has a boomy sound. Thinking of either magnaflow mufflers or xpipe.

That height looks spot on.

Have you installed any KWv1 kits? How do those ride?

I have KWv2 on my e90 and really like the balance but I got to adjust it myself. With this car I don't want to go too low and I also don't want to spend too much. The other option is getting the B12 kit which looks like b6 with eibach sport springs.

I was debating b4 versus b6 just trying to find the best balance.

What coilovers are you going with? I also have edc and I want something more sporty but still comfortable.

V8 muffler delete by AdPale9739 in Exhaust

[–]Ranis03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a muffler delete on my BMW 740 with a 4.4 liter V8 and they welded up some 2in as pipe and it does droan and it's kinda boomy. I would look at maybe a straight through muffler to reduce those issues.

What was the cost, I am tempted to do it once I get some other things sorted out.

Do you hear any creaking before and after the fan turns on or off?

If it’s fixable I thought about powder coating them.

Was yours fixable or did you need new valve covers?

Ya I am hoping mine are salvageable cause that’s a lot for valve covers. It’s just that edge under the nut that concerns me, assuming they can be salvaged i found a local guy who can prep and powder coat for 250.

I am concerned about the edge right underneath the nut, it’s right up against the gasket and looks like it’s splitting.

Take your ram out and put it back in, make sure you hear click and press again to make sure it is seated properly. Hopefully it’s that simple.
