Video finally got a video of the Induction kits made

[5harp3y]

inspired by @Simon Blythe i strapped my phone to my rear view mirror and made this video yesterday.

i'll be posting up simon's videos too for balance as his sounds different with the M50 manifold

this is the z3 induction kit i've built, standard M52 with standard exhaust

Nice sound and a nice double de-clutch too boot

 

[Ianmc]

What does it sound like when you put your foot down? Sorry!

 

[5harp3y]

living on the limiter

 

[Simon Blythe]

Yep definately sounds different to mine

 

[5harp3y]

Yep definately sounds different to mine

must be your m50 manifold, our cars are identical apart from that?

 

[Simon Blythe]

Yep that's all it is mate - I'm getting a greater airflow that's all. Both sound great though

 

[Simon Blythe]

Folks can give us their opinion when you post my vids up.

 

[5harp3y]

and here for a different sound.

Simon's 2.8 M52 fitted with my kit and M50 Manifold.

 

[Simon Blythe]

Thoughts Tim? I have to concede the fact that the standard manifold sounds better

 

[5harp3y]

if thats the only reason then yes, i prefer the sound on mine. but i would probably prefer the extra 20bhp+ of yours

 

[Simon Blythe]

I may have to return mine to standard

 

[5harp3y]

Still sounds great

From those two videos, I can't tell much difference in the sound, other than @5harp3y shifting a lot later up the rev range than you @Simon Blythe. You both just have different driving styles.

I would not concede defeat with your manifold upgrade just yet!

Try going for a more spirited drive... you may yet still scare/impress yourself with the howl of your new kit!

I can't hear much difference either to be honest maybe its a recording issue as sounds to be lots of induction noise in both.
