    need to quiet down exhaust

    i have a recently done my exhaust and repiped everything and put a new cat on and a magnaflow muffler only, what do i need to put on to make it quieter? a resonator or some sort of silencer? can someone point me to a particular product. thanks

    Something like this would probably do the trick.



    Top notch quality too.

      ^^ do you have first hand experience with this item?

      to OP: why not provide more details on your custom exh?
      I have single mandrel 2.5" and 5x11x22 magnaflow with 4x22 resonator in the middle - it's still rather loud for my tastes. You need at least two full size mufflers to quiet down that engine (i assume you have s50 in there)

        yea, my brother has this on his 540i/6 e39. It sounds deep and not raspy.

            You might try a different muffler too. I had a Magnaflow on my old car for a while and it made my brain try to crawl out my ears between 1500-2500 rpm....so, always.
