Here's mine for comparison sake. Sounds similar in person just a bit more throaty.

Dimensions needed...
For those of you who have already done this mod, do you know the dimension of the pipe where you cut off the stock muffler? What size pipe did you use for your replacement? Thanks.

Also, how'd you time the dual conversion? Drove the shop with the new bumper on with the right side cutout empty? Or did you have the shop fit everything? |

The body shop put on my new bumper and diffuser, then chopped off the muffler, at about the rear axle, in order to fit the diffuser and everything. We all thought it sounded pretty good with the muffler chopped off. So I drove to the exhaust shop that way (once the body work was all completed) and just kept the muffler delete, thinking I could add always add a muffler later on. It droned really bad the first few days I had the conversion finished. But since then it has actually broken in nicely with minimal drone. I love it. |

Is it worth deleting the res? Looks like lots of people did a muffler and resonator delete
I thought that it didn't make much difference in sound, also it will be harder to put the car back to stock. |

Just got back from a muffler shop because I was excited to get this done. Picked out my dual tip and got a quote for $110 installed out the door. Then he asked me if I'm ready for the loud unbearable drone and it would cost me 65 bucks if i decided to put my muffler back on. I dont know if he's just trying to sell me a muffler or being honest about the drone. Is it really that unbearable? I know it's been asked million times but why is it that it's a large discrepancy with other saying none at all and others saying I had to put my muffler back on or buy an aftermarket one.
forgot to say that I did back out of it. Anyone in the 90505 with a muffler delete preferably 328i that I can check it out? Last edited by staplescenter; 03-21-2014 at 04:47 PM.. Reason: forgot |

Im really keen on getting this done. I've owned loud cars for the last 6 years so im not going to really notice any drone. Id rather hear something than nothing to be honest, these cars are farrrr too quiet!
So I just need to get a quote from an exhaust place to chop out the rear muffler and weld in a straight pipe with a tail piece? |

I have heard a few people say they noticed a bit of torque loss with a res delete. That strayed me away, cant afford to loose any power/torque.

I did the MD 2 days ago on my 2011 328i and it sounds amazing. Exactly what I was looking for and barely any drone! I am 100% happy. Thanks for everyone's help and advice in this thread!
