    Stock-ish sounding exhaust recommendations

    I have a NV M50 powered e30. Currently, it has the "eBay dtm". Yes, it was a bad idea, but it was cheap. So, I currently have 2.5" piping from the rear of the cat back. I would perfer to have a stock-ish sounding setup. For reference, I can live with the exhaust note of my dad's 2.5 z3, which has a stock setup.

    What is my best option? I have heard good things about remus, but I'm not sure how loud it will be. Also, I have considered getting a stock "I" rear setup (I have a factory-style dual setup from the cat forward. It has a y behind the cat). Basically, I hate the drone and unwanted attention from the straight thru dtm.

    Any ideas?

    I hear Vibrant exhausts have a decent tone and are relatively inexpensive.

      I'd recommend going with the IE catback or the eBay equivalent. It looks great and is fairly quiet.

        Here's the IE catback. It's pretty sweet, a lot of people have used it and enjoyed it.



        Here's the eBay one:
