    Remus Catback: 76 or 90mm?

    So, recently threw in a new set of headers, and am looking into getting a Remus. Only thing is, as the title implies, I'm not sure which size tips to get: 76mm or 90mm. I've heard the 90mm ones can look to big, but all the videos I've seen they look fine. I was wondering what people thought, and if they prefer one or the other. Pictures would be nice as well.

      Pick your favorite, it is just tip size. I like the 90mm because it fills the whole valence cut-out.

        if i were to do it again, I'd w/o a doubt go 76mm. The 90mm ones i have is way too big for the car imo.

              They definitely look too big for the valence cut-out but, I like the tip size overall.

                Well, I ordered the 76mm, I'll update how it looks once I get it.

                I picked it up from BavAuto, because they have them for $650, and ground shipping takes 2 days

                    Well, apparently They're out of stock. Got an email today saying they'd ship in 1-2 weeks.

                    In other news, I got pulled over today by a cop with an E36 M3 (No, he wasn't driving it). Said the headers should sound even better with the Remus, as he used to have a similar setup on his car.

                    He then told me the church parking lot I was in was private property, and I should go to the nearby movie theatre one instead. :D

                      I have the 90mm and they're too big for my taste. Wish I had the smaller size - more fitting to the classic appeal of car.
