BMW s63tu vs n63tu exhaust sound.
I have only owned a BMW for about a year and idk if anyone ever started a discussion or even cared about it but my straight piped f12 650i sounds worlds better than my buddy's $7000-8000 crazy expensive exhaust modded m6 (my opinion). i am sure it has something to do with the s63 manifolds being reversed (even different from the n63 reversed manifolds) to keep pressure for the turbo available but i hate the sound. i was thinking of going to a m6 later on but cant get pass the v10 or v12 sound it makes so i am thinking of doing a engine rebuild with stronger parts and stage 2 or 3 turbos to make about the same power as a modded m6. should be a lot cheaper too. the m6 may sound wonderful to some but i prefer my LOUD AND DEEP BIG BLOCK CHEVY RUMBLE FALLOWED BY THAT TRACTOR TURBO WHISTLE any day.

I think the crossbank manifold ruins the sound as well, the s63 doesn't really sound like a V8 at all.
The crossbank manifold obviously improves spool - but it makes it sound more like an angry 4 cylinder (it reminds me of the CLA45 and A45 actually) than any other engine, people often compare it to a V10, V12 and I thought it would sound like a flatplane V8 actually but it definitely sounds like an A45 to me. I don't see that there is a way to fix it, you can make it louder but it will still be the same weird sound. https://f10.m5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=588858

Sounds angry! Are you running down pipes? Is it muffler delete and resonator/xpipe delete as well? It sounds like both pipes are just straight out, but I'm not sure... |
