N63 Exhaust Manifold/Header conversion

Has anyone ever attempted to swap the S63TU snake manifold for the basic N63 manifold?


N63


S63TU

I appreciate the S63TU flows infinitely better than the N63 but i'd happily sacrifice a few HP and some throttle response for that traditional V8 burble.

Has anyone tried it and what are the results?

I actually just did the opposite. I put the s63tu manifolds and turbos on my N63tu. Still trying to get it to run right.

Downpipes and an xpipe will go a long way to sporting up the sound of the engine.

Could you share via a post of your progress? I love my car but I really don't care for the lumpy note of the n63tu3 motor. The s63 sounds much better to me, much smoother so I want to upgrade to Weistec or Pure turbos and throw in the s63 manifolds to my g15.

Did you have to switch/swap precat 02 sensor plug in locations?
