Fixing The One Thing Most People Hate About The BMW E46 M3!

There is one thing stopping the BMW E46 M3 from being the perfect sports car. Well some some people like it but I can assure you most people don't. Normally you have to spend big money on an aftermarket modification to resolve the issue that I cover in this video. I recently discovered an alternative route that shouldn't cost too much to do and works just as well. Huge thanks to Bimmer Dude for making a video on this hack.

  • I agree, don't like the rasp. Sounds like something is broken or shaking apart. It def sounds better with the added resonator, but you might need something else. Sounds pretty distinct now at least.

  • Best thing to do to get rid of rasp 1. Leave the stock headers and mufflers 2. Replace the mid pipe for resonators on both sides instead of one side which gives it rasp

  • Get the anti rasp section 1 from yonaka motorsport and thank me later. I have 2 e46 m3 (coupe and Vert) and while they have different exhaust setups on them from the headers back (1 is expensive and the other one is a more budget friendly) the 1 component that is the same on both is that anti rasp from yonaka. 0-zero rasp and almost exotic exhaust note especially above 5k revs. Trust me it's the one you want, I have tried so many different ones till I settled for this one and was so happy I got another one for the other m3.

  • you need to convert the exhaust to an e36 M3 euro 3.2L single super sprint race muffler and coupe. the stupid can design of the e46 m3 is uncalled for. Quad tips look good but it’s not a v8 so it’s just aesthetic which elevates form over function. Listen and euro e36 m3 with super sprint exhaust and xpipe. best sound ever
