    I got my exhaust a few weeks ago and had it installed recently.

    Pros: Looks great. Well-made. Sounds rad as hell when starting the car and above 2800RPM (3-5k seems to be the sweet spot for sound).
    Cons: A little bit louder than I'd like at in-town speeds and a little droney. I plan to get a silencer or see what I can do with resonators.

    Given that my OEM was a rattling can of rust, this is an upgrade but it's a little loud for dailying. Still, with that caveat in mind I'm happy with it.

      Finally installed mine from LAST years group buy.

      I agree with you and have the same comments. A little louder than I expected for daily driving and definitely a little bit of drone even around town and on the highway. It is actually a little more quiet at full throttle than I expected as well.

      That being said, I could put my hand in the rust holes of the old exhaust, so this is a serious improvement over that.

      I am happy with it overall.

          Can you guys share what your bent tabs look like, so we can compare?

            Also is there a difference in the exhaust hangers on early 325’s versus late ones?

            I have an ‘88 Touring.

              In case you missed my post, I think it shows a clear comparison.

                Looking at other photos here, mine are definitely bent as well. I received mine a few months ago, just installed it. I will need to bend the tabs back to get the muffler aligned. Nice muffler but shame about the brackets.

                  My muffler has rattled apart inside and the autox people were asking me if I could quiet it down a bit, another round would be very nice.

                                Can I join the group buy and get an e36 m3 catback to fit onto my s54 swapped e30 m3? Or is this just for 325/318?
