joshnz 2 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 I have one, unless you like it loud inside the cabin don't buy one - they are good quality though. I also only just passed a WOF. Note: Have my car booked into pit stop next week, either silencer of some kind or standard is going back on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joshnz 2 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 No difference (but I drive a 320), in all honesty its not worth it. You have a nice 328, get a nice M3 exhaust, it'll be worth it. Trust me this thing is f**king loud, I have to have to stereo up past 18-20 to drown it out! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sven007 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 I brought one from the Trademe Member and sh*t it was loud! Mine was on a E36 318is which was a stupid idea at the time as car is only 4 cylinders which just makes it F**king loud and as someone else stated you have to have your Muisc cranking at a noise where people can hear you from the outside when you dont even have your windows open. Take a risk if you have a 6 cylinder bmw but I wont be buying those again. Nice sound for the first day and then you slowly start to use excuses not to take the Bmw out for a cruise.

bmpower 3 Report post Posted June 27, 2007 Are these boxes really that loud?? I was also looking at putting one (euro stylee flat oval) on my e36 323i. To be honest its mainly for looks and for a bit more noise, not too worried about power increase. Has anyone put one on a 2.5ltr?? Also what sort of cost should i be lookin at to get it installed? After a quick glance under the car i notice i have a single entry in the rear box - wsould i be right in thinking its 2.25in? and it would marry up to 2.25in entry back box? The link below is what i'm lookin at. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...873837.htm?p=36 Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just going to put a twin exhaust tip on for the look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old_Skool_Bmw 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2007 (edited) Re: the exhaust on trademe. I've heard its well worth the money investing on a really good quality muffler if you have a 4cyl engine. reason is the back pulse + hi-revving 4's will rattle the S**t out of anything half-crap. I've just ordered this system for my e30 M3 from Germany. Hopefully I don't have any problems It was relatively cheep as was an extra system bought in from another e30 m3 owner. I'm hoping that I don't have too many problems trying to get a warrent with it on as from what i've been told it's pretty similar spec to the race-spec Supersprint exhaust system.

You may find the slip joints may leak. Ive got a couple of them on my corolla that that are a pain in the arse. The WoF people never know about it as i leave the under body protection on lol. Looks like a great system tho, Id def like one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kpax 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2007 I have to agree, it's not all about looks, I bought a flowmaster of TradeMe some time back. The setup is straight 2.1/4 inch pipe, 1 resonator & flowmaster, It drives & sounds beautiful. She purrs on idle & sounds like jet on the motorway. There is no tip to the flowmaster, just 2 & 1/4 inch pipe sticking out. I was thinking about adding a tip for looks but I like the original look. Before you buy, chat to various guys from exhaust shops & such, see what ideas you come up with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
