BMW E9X M3 Valved Exhaust System – V2
T304 Stainless Steel with Vacuum-Operated Valves & Optional X-Pipe
Overview
Version 2 of the Valvetronic Designs E9X M3 Valved Exhaust System delivers significant upgrades in both reliability and sound refinement, making it the benchmark choice for the platform. We’ve returned to vacuum-actuated valves—proven to be more durable and consistent than electronic alternatives—and enhanced the exhaust tuning for a purer, more engaging driving experience.
Constructed from premium brushed T304 stainless steel and fully mandrel-bent for maximum flow, this system offers the flexibility to cruise quietly with valves closed or unleash the raw S65 V8 soundtrack with valves open. For too long, premium valved systems have been out of reach for many enthusiasts—our mission has been to change that.
For even greater performance and sound, pair the valved rear section with our high-performance X-pipe mid-section, available in both free-flow and catted configurations.
Why It Works
-
Vacuum-Actuated Valves: Increased reliability and rapid response for seamless sound control.
-
High-Flow Mandrel-Bent Tubing: Improves throttle response and overall power delivery.
-
Affordable Excellence: Premium valved performance without the excessive “M tax.”
Mid-Pipe Options
-
Free-Flow X-Pipe: Aggressive tone and maximum horsepower gains; features a large X-merge after the transmission tunnel for optimal scavenging.
-
Catted X-Pipe: Equipped with 200-cell Euro 6 catalytic converters for improved emissions compliance without sacrificing flow.
Resonator Layout:
-
Four resonators in the front section smooth exhaust tones immediately from the engine.
Sound & Control
-
Valves Closed: Factory-like refinement for urban driving or long-distance cruising.
-
Valves Open: Aggressive, motorsport-inspired V8 tone with sharp throttle response.
-
Flexible Setup: Choose rear section only or complete system with mid-pipe.

Reviews
Best of both worlds
"I bought this exhaust wanting two things,Loud and quiet and it sure gave me that,not only did it satisfy my needs in how it can turn quiet and loud it also did in how good it sounds,Sounds amazing in valves closed and valves open,looks great and overall amazing exhaust highly recommend."
Axle back
"The best exhaust your money can buy. The craftsmanship is second to none"
AMAZING SOUND
"This exhaust setup is amazing!!"
Super Awesome!!
"Love the kit. Everything fit perfect. Valve controller was easy to do and works as expected. The car sounds better than I expected, and I expected a lot! Thank you!"
Fantastic Catback with easy install
"Have the Evolve Catless Midpipe and partnered the Valvetronic Catback and love the combination. The ease of installation helped me install the full system in under an hour. I also really appreciate the combination of being able to close the valves and allow for a sporty sound vs opening the valves for a really aggressive sounds. Pricepoint is great as well."
It's pretty good
"If I could give 4. 5 stars I would. It's a great exhaust and an awesome concept. However I have a couple of things I'd like to point out. First thing, I added the brushed tips to my order and I was disappointed with the quality of the clamps. No matter how much I tightened them, they wouldn't completely secure the tips on, and I even ended up breaking 2 of the clamps. My second thing is its a bit too quite with the valves closed, its even quieter than my stock mufflers. I wish there was a 3rd setting that had the valves just partially opened. Not too loud, not too quite. All in all, im happy with this exhaust. My e92 M3 sounds absolutely awesome with the valves open."
Great Quality and Sound
"Order came within a week, Install was pretty straightforward. Car sounds amazing with the valves open. Makes it convenient to open and close the valves with a push of a button"
"Im shocked how well this exhaust is made. Installation was very simple and fit straight up with little adjustment. The sound is perfect, it was exactly what i wanted out of a e92 m3, the quiet mode is magic how all the noise disappears with a touch of a button. Would 1000% recommend this exhuast."
Worth it
"The sound from the exhaust is awesome, I am happy with the purchase."
Q&A
- What’s the difference between the 1x1 carbon tips and the forged carbon tips?
- 1x1 is regular carbon fiber, and the forged carbon tips have forged carbon fiber. Please see pictures
- would this fit on my 2011 328i?
- Unfortunately it will not as it is only made for the M3 of that generation
- Will the catted version pass CA emissions?
- We have a bunch of enthusiast who run this set up and they pass just fine, but the E9X M3 platform is strange because it is hit or miss with the car throwing the check engine, light or not. Because of the older configuration of the sensors we do find that it varies if the check engine light will pop up. We ultimately recommend running a stock X pipe for getting the sticker
- Me podrían decir cuál es el diámetro de las colas de escape? Gracias
- 3.5 inch!
