Performance Axle-Back Exhaust - E36 M3:
Finally the answer to your E36 exhaust woes! Upgrade from your old, crusty or quiet exhaust that lacks the OOMPH you want to hear when stepping on the gas. Our crew at Turner have been describing this exhaust with words like “symphony” and “hearty” with its smooth and low frequency tone. This is the kind of exhaust we stand outside and listen to as our residential test vehicle rolls out from work heading off in the distance while singing the oh so sweet straight six sound.
Our new E36 cat-back is a tribute to the E36 M3 in more ways than one. The exhaust features 90s styling exhaust tips to compliment the sharp yet rudimentary body lines. Just like the E36 our exhaust was designed to be raw, straight to the point, lightweight and timeless.
To accomplish these goals our engineers revved up their creativity and went straight to work. Adapting straight to the mid-pipes our engineers transformed the lackluster 2.0” tubing and stepped up to a true-dual 2.5” exhaust with an integrated x-pipe to smooth out the flow and fine tune the exhaust note just how we wanted. Towards the rear of the vehicle you will find a light-weight and perfectly spec’d muffler featuring fabricated sheet metal hangers, slash cut integrated tips and achieves a fine-tuned exhaust note.
We can only hope the community enjoys this exhaust as much as we at Turner enjoy it. As a part of the community, we are excited to offer this awesome exhaust for all to enjoy.
Non-M Fitment:
Although we designed this exhaust specifically for the M3 model we felt it was a shame to rob this exhaust opportunity from the Non-M E36 owners. Face it, every straight six deserves a sweet exhaust. If you or your fellow enthusiasts feel so inclined our exhaust can be fitted to all standard 6 cylinder E36s. ** For non-m E36s you will have to slightly bend the exhaust hangers to get perfect fitment in the non-m rear bumper/diffuser. **

Why the upgrade?
By now your E36 M3 is approaching 30 years of age and you have a few possible exhaust situations:
- One of the options is you still have the factory exhaust and it is at the end of its life, it could be covered in rust and unsightly or packed solid with soot deposits which is not helping the weight, flow or tone of your exhaust.
- A second option is that you have an aftermarket exhaust that you fitted years ago and it is seeing the same fate as the factory muffler just at an expedited rate, the muffler is no longer sounding or performing the same and needs to be swapped out.
- Another probable exhaust situation you could find yourself in is that you have an exhaust fitted on your M3 that you think sounds good and had no intentions of changing it but after seeing and hearing our exhaust you find yourself wanting a new look, sound, and sense of enjoyment from driving your E36.

E36 Sedan LTW Spoiler:
Experience a modern interpretation of LTW styling with our latest creation. Inspired by the classic E36 lightweight, and crafted with precision by our expert engineering team at Turner, we proudly introduce our carbon LTW spoiler, setting a new standard in the industry. Carefully crafted with a multi-piece carbon design, our spoiler is not just an accessory; it's a work of art featuring a flawless glass-like finish and perfectly matched carbon weave.
As fellow enthusiasts, we understand the importance of preserving the integrity of E36s and their components. With iconic colors like Techno Violet, Boston Green, and Estoril Blue in mind, we refuse to compromise the original trunk and paint with traditional drilling methods. Instead, our carbon LTW spoiler features an innovative fastening system that requires no modifications and preserves your car's pristine showroom finish. With precision-engineered billet clamps and high-quality 3M double-sided tape, installation is a breeze, requiring only basic hand tools. No drilling is necessary.
Research and development:
We feel it is crucial to share our journey into the design and engineering that went into developing this remarkable carbon spoiler. The development of this LTW spoiler was not a quick process; it spanned over three years. Throughout this time, we dedicated ourselves to refining, testing, and making adjustments to craft a spoiler that we're thrilled to introduce to the community.
From perfecting the form and fitment to ensuring the spoilers's stability, every aspect of this project presented significant challenges. This carbon spoiler is comprised of 5 components, the base spoiler, 70mm risers, upper spoiler, gurney flap, and most importantly the mounting brackets.
Anyone familiar with carbon fiber knows the difficulty of working with these nearly 50-inch wide pieces to achieve straightness without flex while maintaining a consistent carbon weave pattern. During the initial stages of carbon testing, the manufacturing process proved to be nothing short of impossible. Issues such as carbon fiber twisting during curing, waviness in the exterior appearance, and mismatched carbon weave posed significant hurdles.
Furthermore, ensuring precise fitment was paramount. Not only did the spoiler components need to seamlessly integrate with the trunk gaps, but they also had to clear adjacent body portions without error. We underwent rigorous testing, cycling through five sets of carbon spoiler prototypes before achieving a result that met our exact standards.
Numerous adjustments were made throughout the project, including modifications to the carbon composition, bracketry, and the incorporation of gaskets between carbon layers. Our passion and dedication were poured into every aspect of this product.
Throughout the project timeline, we conducted extensive long-term testing on various vehicles, subjecting the spoiler to speeds beyond what can be publicly disclosed. When we say these spoilers are secure, we mean it. Utilizing both 3M double-sided tape and four billet brackets with a total of eight fasteners, this spoiler can be confidently installed. The billet mounting brackets are designed to fasten over the top of the factory seam sealer on the underside of the trunk for maximum stability. Near the end of testing, we decided to add an adhesive-backed gasket to the underside of the base, providing yet another layer of paint protection.
Styling:
The greatest part we have enjoyed over this project is the versatile style of the spoiler as designed. If you have read this far into our development process we can strongly say that you are a true car enthusiast. As car enthusiasts we can never leave the car alone, changing setups and most importantly styling. With the multi-piece design, the option to change up your look is just moments away with a little help from some hand tools.
Initially, we were fully committed to running the complete setup: full height, 70mm risers, and gurney flap – all inspired by the LTW look with a modern carbon twist. However, as we spent more time with the spoiler, our perspective shifted. We decided to remove the 70mm risers and suddenly rediscovered our love for the E36's original aesthetic. Without the risers, the spoiler took on a new, understated elegance, blending seamlessly with the car's overall design.
Time passed, and we began to explore other options. Removing the gurney flap toned down the race car vibe, revealing yet another layer of the spoiler's versatility. Each subtle alteration brought about a significant change in style, proving that even the smallest adjustments could make a world of difference.
Our journey with the spoiler was one of constant evolution; from full-on LTW racing aesthetics to more understated styling and back again. This flexibility was the true beauty of our creation, keeping us engaged and dedicated throughout the rigorous development process.
E36 M3 Street Flow Rear Diffuser
Add-on diffuser to deliver a true motorsport look to your M3. Fastened seamlessly to the bottom of the rear bumper giving a platform to show off your exhaust and complete the rear end of the E36.
The E36 M3 is an amazing looking car right out of the box but a common BMW issue is the height of the front vs rear bumpers. As far back as the E30, the front bumper is much lower than the rear bumper and the E36 M3 faces the same issue. With this problem the front bumper is always super low to the ground and the rear bumper looks in-complete. The ECS add-on diffuser is a unique option for balancing out the rear bumper with the height of the front bumper for a full and complete look.
Give your M3 that wild style that stands out from the crowd, and obtain a nice balanced look. This is just the start of a new line of Street Flow Diffusers diffusers that are a must have extension of your awesome ride. The diffusers come powder coated in a sleek satin-black finish, are a blast to install and fit seamlessly against the rear bumper for a professional looking install every time. The Street Flow diffuser attaches below your factory rear diffuser and exhaust of your choosing to fill out the rear end for a nice full and aggressive styling profile.
Lets take a trip together down a new and unique path. Over the years ECS has designed factory replacement ABS and Carbon Fiber diffusers for all different models of BMW's. For the factory replacements ECS focus was to take the oem characteristics and add a twist and really bring out a more aggressive look with a direct replacement diffuser. For their new line of diffusers, us as car enthusiasts wanted to design a set of diffusers that really pushed the envelope and stepped outside of our comfort zone. Our new line of add-on diffusers is a result of our engineering team and fellow enthusiasts spending time study the M3 chassis, modeling different designs, testing prototypes and making changes to get a final product that we are extremely excited to offer. The E36 M3 Street Flow Diffuser is the first in our line of new diffusers. Stay tuned for the E92 M3 diffusers next!

Paired with a modified geometry flywheel, the E34 M5 style clutch is ideally suited for most E36, E46, and others using the same powertrain. It checks all the boxes for essential clutch replacement features. While some aftermarket options may address slipping issues and worn-out clutches, they often sacrifice pedal feel, providing little to no resistance. A soft clutch not only kills the driving experience of your BMW but also reduces confidence when pushing the car to its limits.
On the contrary, you might be in the market for an upgraded clutch to handle your modified engine/forced induction builds. You go from an OE or aftermarket clutch option that has a lackluster and soft pedal feel to the complete opposite side of the spectrum, a very stiff clutch that grabs like an on-and-off switch making the clutch a pain almost undrivable on the street resulting in your favorite car turning into your least favorite car to drive.
The E34 M5 clutch and flywheel kit balances performance with practicality, ensuring a satisfying driving experience whether you're maintaining your BMW or preparing it for increased power demands.

High Kick Trunk Spoiler Features & Specifications:
Installation is a breeze – clean the trunk surface, peel off the backing, line up, and press down firmly. Enhance your E36 Coupe's style without breaking the bank.
E36 Coupe LTW Spoiler:
Experience a modern interpretation of LTW styling with our latest creation. Inspired by the classic E36 lightweight, and crafted with precision by our expert engineering team at Turner, we proudly introduce our carbon LTW spoiler, setting a new standard in the industry. Carefully crafted with a multi-piece carbon design, our spoiler is not just an accessory; it's a work of art featuring a flawless glass-like finish and perfectly matched carbon weave.
As fellow enthusiasts, we understand the importance of preserving the integrity of E36s and their components. With iconic colors like Techno Violet, Boston Green, and Estoril Blue in mind, we refuse to compromise the original trunk and paint with traditional drilling methods. Instead, our carbon LTW spoiler features an innovative fastening system that requires no modifications and preserves your car's pristine showroom finish. With precision-engineered billet clamps and high-quality 3M double-sided tape, installation is a breeze, requiring only basic hand tools. No drilling is necessary.
Research and development:
We feel it is crucial to share our journey into the design and engineering that went into developing this remarkable carbon spoiler. The development of this LTW spoiler was not a quick process; it spanned over three years. Throughout this time, we dedicated ourselves to refining, testing, and making adjustments to craft a spoiler that we're thrilled to introduce to the community.
From perfecting the form and fitment to ensuring the spoilers's stability, every aspect of this project presented significant challenges. This carbon spoiler is comprised of 5 components, the base spoiler, 70mm risers, upper spoiler, gurney flap, and most importantly the mounting brackets.
Anyone familiar with carbon fiber knows the difficulty of working with these nearly 50-inch wide pieces to achieve straightness without flex while maintaining a consistent carbon weave pattern. During the initial stages of carbon testing, the manufacturing process proved to be nothing short of impossible. Issues such as carbon fiber twisting during curing, waviness in the exterior appearance, and mismatched carbon weave posed significant hurdles.
Furthermore, ensuring precise fitment was paramount. Not only did the spoiler components need to seamlessly integrate with the trunk gaps, but they also had to clear adjacent body portions without error. We underwent rigorous testing, cycling through five sets of carbon spoiler prototypes before achieving a result that met our exact standards.
Numerous adjustments were made throughout the project, including modifications to the carbon composition, bracketry, and the incorporation of gaskets between carbon layers. Our passion and dedication were poured into every aspect of this product.
Throughout the project timeline, we conducted extensive long-term testing on various vehicles, subjecting the spoiler to speeds beyond what can be publicly disclosed. When we say these spoilers are secure, we mean it. Utilizing both 3M double-sided tape and four billet brackets with a total of eight fasteners, this spoiler can be confidently installed. The billet mounting brackets are designed to fasten over the top of the factory seam sealer on the underside of the trunk for maximum stability. Near the end of testing, we decided to add an adhesive-backed gasket to the underside of the base, providing yet another layer of paint protection.
Styling:
The greatest part we have enjoyed over this project is the versatile style of the spoiler as designed. If you have read this far into our development process we can strongly say that you are a true car enthusiast. As car enthusiasts we can never leave the car alone, changing setups and most importantly styling. With the multi-piece design, the option to change up your look is just moments away with a little help from some hand tools.
Initially, we were fully committed to running the complete setup: full height, 70mm risers, and gurney flap – all inspired by the LTW look with a modern carbon twist. However, as we spent more time with the spoiler, our perspective shifted. We decided to remove the 70mm risers and suddenly rediscovered our love for the E36's original aesthetic. Without the risers, the spoiler took on a new, understated elegance, blending seamlessly with the car's overall design.
Time passed, and we began to explore other options. Removing the gurney flap toned down the race car vibe, revealing yet another layer of the spoiler's versatility. Each subtle alteration brought about a significant change in style, proving that even the smallest adjustments could make a world of difference.
Our journey with the spoiler was one of constant evolution; from full-on LTW racing aesthetics to more understated styling and back again. This flexibility was the true beauty of our creation, keeping us engaged and dedicated throughout the rigorous development process.
E36 M3 Street Flow Rear Diffuser
Add-on diffuser to deliver a true motorsport look to your M3. Fastened seamlessly to the bottom of the rear bumper giving a platform to show off your exhaust and complete the rear end of the E36.
The E36 M3 is an amazing looking car right out of the box but a common BMW issue is the height of the front vs rear bumpers. As far back as the E30, the front bumper is much lower than the rear bumper and the E36 M3 faces the same issue. With this problem the front bumper is always super low to the ground and the rear bumper looks in-complete. The ECS add-on diffuser is a unique option for balancing out the rear bumper with the height of the front bumper for a full and complete look.
Give your M3 that wild style that stands out from the crowd, and obtain a nice balanced look. This is just the start of a new line of Street Flow Diffusers diffusers that are a must have extension of your awesome ride. The diffusers come powder coated in a sleek satin-black finish, are a blast to install and fit seamlessly against the rear bumper for a professional looking install every time. The Street Flow diffuser attaches below your factory rear diffuser and exhaust of your choosing to fill out the rear end for a nice full and aggressive styling profile.
Lets take a trip together down a new and unique path. Over the years ECS has designed factory replacement ABS and Carbon Fiber diffusers for all different models of BMW's. For the factory replacements ECS focus was to take the oem characteristics and add a twist and really bring out a more aggressive look with a direct replacement diffuser. For their new line of diffusers, us as car enthusiasts wanted to design a set of diffusers that really pushed the envelope and stepped outside of our comfort zone. Our new line of add-on diffusers is a result of our engineering team and fellow enthusiasts spending time study the M3 chassis, modeling different designs, testing prototypes and making changes to get a final product that we are extremely excited to offer. The E36 M3 Street Flow Diffuser is the first in our line of new diffusers. Stay tuned for the E92 M3 diffusers next!

Performance Valved Cat-Back Exhaust - E36 M3:
Our new E36 Axle Back Exhaust is a versatile exhaust offering a number of options for E36 owners. With the factory exhaust you can upgrade to having valve control for different tone and volume options on the fly. For the fully upgraded or turbo owners this exhaust features a 2.0" to 3.0" exhaust pipe conversion and full 3.0" valved muffler that can be used with a custom full 3.0" exhaust.
When it comes to shopping for exhausts you want to find one that suits your driving style and sound preference. While one part of you wants to have a loud and aggressive sounding exhaust, there is another part of you that knows you don't want to wake up the neighborhood or annoy your significant other. Finally the answer to your dilemma, thanks to our engineers at Turner you no longer need to choose between rowdy and tame. With your new light-weight performance exhaust you have the option to go from tame and tasteful to loud and rowdy.
Our Valved exhaust was designed specifically for your E36 and there are no other options on the market like this. Control the tone and volume of your exhaust with the click of a button. With the valves closed you have a nice low tone and hearty exhaust note. When the valves are open you get complete unrestricted access to sound and power for when your at the track or just in the mood to let it rip.
Our Turner catback features dual 2.0" to 3.0" adapter that connects directly to your factory mid-pipes. From the adapter is full 3.0" exhaust piping with a smooth flow path to lower back pressure which leads to increased performance and a smoother exhaust tone. The 3.0" rear exhaust section flows into a full 3" valved muffler. The muffler features integrated 3" exhaust tips for an aggressive look that fills out your rear diffuser to get the perfect appearance.
New in 2023 you have two new options for E36 exhausts, our Turner valved and non valved axle back exhaust setups. With our Non Valved Axle-Back you achieve a happy medium of volume and tone but without the ability to adjust the volume. Our Valved Axle-Back is another variation and a true weapon, not only does it have the option to fit to your factory exhaust system but it is also the clear option for those looking to make a full 3.0" exhaust. After putting together the front 3.0" exhaust section you can assemble it with our Turner Valved Axle-Back for not only a full custom 3.0" exhaust but also have the luxury of volume control all with perfectly paired integrated 90's styled exhaust tips that fill out the rear valance with perfect proportions.

Add power and sound to your E36 with a performance exhaust system and free-flowing intake!
Performance Axle-Back Exhaust - E36 M3:
Finally the answer to your E36 exhaust woes! Upgrade from your old, crusty or quiet exhaust that lacks the OOMPH you want to hear when stepping on the gas. Our crew at Turner have been describing this exhaust with words like “symphony” and “hearty” with its smooth and low frequency tone. This is the kind of exhaust we stand outside and listen to as our residential test vehicle rolls out from work heading off in the distance while singing the oh so sweet straight six sound.
Our new E36 cat-back is a tribute to the E36 M3 in more ways than one. The exhaust features 90s styling exhaust tips to compliment the sharp yet rudimentary body lines. Just like the E36 our exhaust was designed to be raw, straight to the point, lightweight and timeless.
To accomplish these goals our engineers revved up their creativity and went straight to work. Adapting straight to the mid-pipes our engineers transformed the lackluster 2.0” tubing and stepped up to a true-dual 2.5” exhaust with an integrated x-pipe to smooth out the flow and fine tune the exhaust note just how we wanted. Towards the rear of the vehicle you will find a light-weight and perfectly spec’d muffler featuring fabricated sheet metal hangers, slash cut integrated tips and achieves a fine-tuned exhaust note.
We can only hope the community enjoys this exhaust as much as we at Turner enjoy it. As a part of the community, we are excited to offer this awesome exhaust for all to enjoy.
Non-M Fitment:
Although we designed this exhaust specifically for the M3 model we felt it was a shame to rob this exhaust opportunity from the Non-M E36 owners. Face it, every straight six deserves a sweet exhaust. If you or your fellow enthusiasts feel so inclined our exhaust can be fitted to all standard 6 cylinder E36s. ** For non-m E36s you will have to slightly bend the exhaust hangers to get perfect fitment in the non-m rear bumper/diffuser. **
- CLICK HERE - for a sample of just how good your S50 or S52 can sound!
Why the upgrade?
By now your E36 M3 is approaching 30 years of age and you have a few possible exhaust situations:
- One of the options is you still have the factory exhaust and it is at the end of its life, it could be covered in rust and unsightly or packed solid with soot deposits which is not helping the weight, flow or tone of your exhaust.
- A second option is that you have an aftermarket exhaust that you fitted years ago and it is seeing the same fate as the factory muffler just at an expedited rate, the muffler is no longer sounding or performing the same and needs to be swapped out.
- Another probable exhaust situation you could find yourself in is that you have an exhaust fitted on your M3 that you think sounds good and had no intentions of changing it but after seeing and hearing our exhaust you find yourself wanting a new look, sound, and sense of enjoyment from driving your E36.

With a generous 60mm (2.36") range of adjustability, you can precisely eliminate sway bar preload caused by lowered ride heights or coilover setups—ensuring predictable, neutral handling in all conditions.
Each link features a CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum body, anodized in red for corrosion resistance and durability. The design incorporates left- and right-hand threaded sections for quick, on-car adjustments without disassembly. Heavy-duty ball joint ends with rubber dust boots and stainless retainers provide long service life, while zinc-plated hardware ensures strength and rust resistance.
Technical Specs:
Adjustment Range: 215mm (8.46") – 275mm (10.82")
Billet aluminum, red anodized center sections
Heavy-duty M10x1.5 ball joints with weather-resistant boots
Zinc-plated hardware & Nyloc locking nuts
Left/right-hand threaded adjustment for easy tuning
Fitment Note: If your E36 M3 has aftermarket struts or coilovers, confirm the distance between your sway bar and the strut body at ride height. Proper fitment requires a length between 215–275mm.

Refresh and upgrade your entire shifting assembly. The chassis mount removed the shift carrier eliminating 3 bushing positions that can add to the play in your shifter while the dssr replaces your factory selector rod for added shifter linkage control. To complete your installation this kit comes with a new selector rod joint so you know all of the components are at peak performance. With this setup, you will have a short, direct, and solid shifter feeling to make you excited for every driving adventure.
For dozens of years, enthusiasts have critiqued the imprecise and vague feeling of BMW manual transmissions. Plagued with long throws, fore and aft play in gear, and a generally loose feeling, your OEM BMW shifter leaves much to be desired. While most standard carrier-mount short throw shifter kits will aid in reducing throw length and eliminating side-to-side play in gear, some enthusiasts long for a hardcore, race-inspired shifter that completely removes play and excessive throw length. The enthusiasts at Turner Motorsport share the same desire and set out to offer the ULTIMATE upgrade with this Performance Chassis Mount Short Shifter.
WHY UPGRADE?
Factory BMW shifter assemblies are complex by nature. The main component of this assembly is the shift carrier, a cast aluminum piece positioned inside the transmission tunnel that incorporates bushings at both ends for mounting. Like most factory parts, these bushings are designed to reduce NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) transmission to the cabin. To the spirited driver, however, these bushings translate to flex and vagueness in the shift lever. Moreover, because this carrier is mounted to both the transmission and the body, the entire shifter assembly will "float" with the driveline, further increasing the vague and imprecise feeling of your shifter.
The Turner Motorsport Performance Chassis Mount Short Shifter removes the shift carrier assembly entirely—removing any prospect of flex caused by bushings or driveline movement. By contrast, this chassis mount shifter offers a drastic reduction in shift lever travel, vagueness, and side-to-side play. An elevated base allows for moving the fulcrum point upwards, resulting in a much shorter and more precise throw. Shift times are further reduced by a tall, "rally style" shift lever, used to aid in leverage while also bringing the lever closer to the steering wheel. Turner's design incorporates a proprietary centering spring design, which is adjustable for increasing or decreasing self-centering force. In short, Turner's design eliminates all the drawbacks of your factory BMW shifter, translating to more control, greater precision, shorter throws, and faster shift times.
