There is nothing readily available in the US for this as a direct bolt-on, as there were no 6 cyl ti's in the US. Z3 and Mcoupe exhausts are too short, regular e36 exhausts are too long. (not to mention wrong mounting points)

I had a custom exhaust made from the headers back w/ 2.5" piping. Ran about $500 inc. CA legal cat, resonator and muffler. Totally worth it.

The ti front exhaust section is too restrictive for a 6 cyl motor. If you can, find a mid-section from any 6 cyl e36 and have a good muffler shop fab up the rest off that, for a less expensive option.

Too restrictive an exhaust will result in a loss of power across the board, not to mention possibly burning out the exhaust valves. Too free flowing of an exhaust, and you will lose substantial low end torque.
