WANTED - foams for 3.0si sound generator
Hi guys
Previous owner took the foams out, and it’s too loud. Whilst I’ve had a go with some speaker foam, I’m not that happy with it so would like some OE foams
If anyone has some lying around, I’d take them off your hands!
Thanks
Dave

I don't think there is anything special about the OEM foam. Speaker foam was probably acoustically transparent, which would defeat the object IMO..
BMW don't list the foam separately, so I assume it comes with the tube..

Bmw want £45 fo the tube, which includes the foam! Would quite like the original foam if poss as I remember it sounded quite well tuned. At the moment it’s nice and mechanical up to about 4k rpm then it just howls.... but the transition is abrupt and doesn’t sound particularly good IMO.
Mr Wilks - I’d be happy to wait!
