 dude,

Welcome, good to see another 3.0L M3 on the board

Okay, Supersprint do the best Decat pipe, this is around £270. Rear boxes you have a big selection. so depending on your price range you are looking at £275 for a Mongoose, £340 for a scorpion, £380 Supersprint(too quiet) or right up to £795 for an ACSchnitzer.

I know peeps on here dont like Scorpions, but IMO it is the best value and looks and sounds nice. The STW tail pipes are the best bet. as they look close to standard just slightly bigger diameter.

Induction Kits, you have to be a bit careful here, the best one is the GruppeM induction kit but this is around £500 , you will get cheaper ones available but make sure they come with a heat shield.

I have a BMC F1 panel filter in mine, a Supersprint Decat and ACS rear box. Would love the GruppeM but its too much of the green stuff.  I love the sound of my motor, it turns heads and no one has said it sounds crap. Everyone loves it including me

First off, hello.  My first post on here, I've been lurking for a while

I've recently bought an E36 M3, 3.0l 95 model.

What I want to know is.. Is there an induction (airbox replacement) kit available for this car?.  I've seen panel filters, but no induction kit.

I'm also looking for an aftermarket exhaust system (including de-cat), seen a few of these available.

Now before I get flamed I'm not a boy racer but who can't appreciate the sound these cars make??.  Thing is it's only just audible, I've seen/heard an m3 with de-cat system at full chat and it sounded awesome, almost Ferrari 'esque.

I want the induction and exhaust system purely to enjoy the superb sound.  Any info would be great.

Also, has anyone fitted the steering joint (was a failing prob on these cars) themselves?, I've got a new one coming and intend putting it on myself, any tips?.  I rang bmw and it was replaced in 2001 and despite me saying it'd gone quickly and did they want to replace it again, they were'nt playing ball.
