Show your mufflers

[trackbball21]

I need to hear how loud yours is. I want to quiet mine down more.

What did you do for your setup? Eventually i'll want mine a little quieter too i think. Are you using ss reps?
Sorry I never came to get the m52 headers, I just thought I'd save some money, as this was kinda expensive.

great site thanks man!

Yup that's where I got my cat and muffler. IMO they sound the best on e36 motors, especially for the $.

These mufflers are pure sex: (I'm using the 3" w/ dual 3.5" round cut tips)

Just got my exhaust done today at MBS in Pasadena.
Ebay SS replica headers
2.5 inch aluminized steel (felt like saving a 150 bucks)
Magnaflow straight through muffler
Vibrant Street Power Muffler in flat black (2.5 in and dual 3's out)

Overall it looks awesome, its a little loud for my liking, but I'll get used to it. They did a really good job. The only downside is that where the headers connect to the exhaust, it still hangs a bit low, but this is because of my ebay headers...

I'll try and get some pictures up this weekend for all to see.

I have a similar setup from MBS. Mine is way too low right off the ebay headers. I can not go over speed bumps even if I take them at an angle. If I was doing it again I would have them cut the ebay headers and weld a flange on then bend a tube with a tighter fit to the underside of the car. Post some photos of your setup

I'm in the exact same boat as you. what springs are you running? I have some intrax ones that I'm pretty sure are race springs, my wheels are in the wheel wells. I'll grab some pics and post them up tomorrow or saturday.

Same here for the most part. It's annoying as fuck! Hopefully I'll be switching it up a lil this summer.

just out of curiosity, what are you guys paying on average for custom exhaust?, i will need to get mine done, but dont really have an idea of where to start as far as quotes from different shops...

headers back.

Just an update regarding my side exit exhaust:

My s50b32 with stock Euro headers, dual 2.25" mandrel bent tubing, and a Magnaflow dual 2.25" muffler was reading 105db at Thunderhil a couple weeks ago.
It got me black flagged once so I had to lift a little sooner down the main straight to keep the noise down.

What's the noise limit? i heard there is a iphone app that measures DB's. I wonder how loud my suppertrapp is.

^I woudlnt' be surprised, there's probably an app to measure your average stroke per minute;)

Screw that, you stood me up! I had 2 other guys in line waiting and I told them no. hahahaha I kidd I kidd. I think I'm running SS reps. They're headers that fit when my friend had his car. I bought some eBay ones and they didn't fit, they would hit the motor mount arm.

great site thanks man!

How loud are those mufflers?

I was thinking to have someone cut the header, put a flex pipe in it, so you can flex it a bit more and such. You guys ever try to put another hanger up? I have a flex pipe in my mid section, and I put a bracket to hold the mid section a bit higher. I'm on H&R Sports, and I will slightly rub when I go over a speed bump. I'm switching to GC's soon.

Beautiful. What resonator did you say that was? by the looks of it, it's should be up there in sound with mine. Too fuckin loud lol.

I used one of those Magnalfow through through mufflers. I cant get the name of it if you want. I thought it would quiet it down, but I meed something else to make it a little quieter, although the sound is growing on me. It is loud!

I am running H&R Race springs which doesn't help the situation. If you look in the photo below of the Ebay headers I think if you cut right near the collector for each bank of tubes welded a flange there and then bent a tube with a more aggressive angle that would allow you to clock the first bend on a different plane and give a tighter fit to the underside of the car. There is a lot of potential for interference in that area so I don't know if its possible.

Does anybody have a picture of what the vibrant muffler looks like looking through the inlet to the outlet?
