    How does Dynomax on 318is sound?

    My questions is the subject of the post. Can anyone help me with this? I want to know how the Dynomax super turbo sounds on the 318is? Does it sound more similar to the SuperSprint setup, slightly louder then stock. If Stock is rated at 0, and SS is rated at 2 since it's slightly louder, and Magnaflow is rated at 5, where does the dynomax stand?
    Thanks.

    well, jordan just updated the media section and it includes this muffler. the sound clip is god-awful once the wind starts flying in, though. here:

      My friend Matt (Spoone30) has one on his 318, and I dare to say it's quieter than the stock 13 year old muffler was. Probably not the best choice if you want a louder sound. I'd go with something like Magnaflow.

      My SS is barely louder than stock at low revs, and only slightly louder at high revs. I'd rate the SS about a 1 and the Dynomax maybe a 0 or even a -1.

        I have one on my 318is, just the muffler. At idle, it's definately quieter than stock. Once you get going it has a decent tone. By no means loud though

          I like mine. For something so cheap, theres hardly any droning. Try it out.

            The 2.5" Dynomax on my otherwise stock 318is engine made a nice growl, no rasp, and was fairly deep. The galvanized steel construction is not shabby at all. At 30 bucks, it's a steal.

              The dynomax turbo on my 325i is louder than my gutted stock muffler was.
