Thanks

WTB/WTT / Fuel gauge

Looking for a fuel gauge for my 318is.

If you have a fuel gauge with the part #1 394 317 or a cluster with that PN gauge.

Let me know, I only need the gauge, but if I gotta buy the whole cluster for the gauge, then I'll do that.

I'm looking for either just the fuel gauge, but will buy the cluster at a reasonable price.

Any way you can get me the fuel guage PN?

Well just from comparing pictures on Turner's website.  It looks like I have the right one.

I lost my contact info for the company, so I'm gonna try and find it today.

The mid pipe hangar lines up pretty good, so that makes me wonder.  Plus the pictures that are listed for a 318is looks like the exact system I have.

On another note, I had to get a new rear muffler hanger and I ended up getting an Ansa universal kit.  I'm wondering if I have the actual upper muffler straps mixed up.  Looks like they each go in a certain location.

Does anyone have a picture of their factory strap locations?

It may explain why mine doesn't fit good.  Because the straps are in the wrong spots which is causing the muffler to be rotated.

So I got my supersprint exhaust in yesterday and put it on today after work.  The mid pipe isn't even close to the same bends as the factory setup.  It hangs down because where the "channel" is that exhaust is suppose to run to, it's not that close to it.  The flat spot for the subframe isn't even close to the subframe, it's about 8 inches in front of it

I mean I'm not upset too much, I can fab up a new mid pipe that will work.  Just sucks you pay $550 for an exhaust and it doesn't fit good at all.

Oh and besides the fitment, it sounds amazing and I love the tip!

General Topics / Just finished my custom fabbed exhaust

« on: July 10, 2010, 10:09:46 PM »

Finally got around to fabbing up the exhaust for the car.  I used 2.25" tubing and bought mandrel bent peices from JC Whitney.  I also used a thermal research stainless muffler from them also.  I wanted something a little bigger because I didn't want the car loud.

I forgot to take my camera to take pics of the system off the car.  All in all, the fit and finish is pretty good with the exception of the tailpipe/tip which I plan on fixing soon.  I used all the original hangars and modified the stock muffler strap to work with the new muffler.  Used a single wall magnaflow tip too.  Built the whole system for under $200.

Sounds ok, no rasp at all, it's a little loud for me though, plus it's gonna burn in and probably get louder so I may try a different setup, we'll see.  

These are the best pics I could get, I'll try again tomorrow and take them from a different angle to the sun doesn't drain out the picture.





I know people are gonna want video clips so I'll try tomorrow.
