Exhaust Popping/Backfiring

iwugolf · 01-13-2009, 04:53 PM

So im looking into buying a Riss Racing Exhaust or the BMW Performance one. For those that have heard the exhaust in action, do either of them make "popping" or backfiring noises on deceleration or as the revs drop when letting of the gas?? I kind of like the raw sound of this, so just curious to see if either exhaust made the popping sound. Thanks in advance!

To answer your question, the Riss Racing has a tamer tone compared to the BMW Performance Exhaust, since the BMW exhaust deletes the stock mid muffler. The BMW exhaust has that popping note upon letting of the gas.

i actually heard a lot of people who did this went back to the stock muffler due to problems....I was going to do this but it seemed ghetto lol

Nice, so it sounds like BMW may be the way to go for me. Thanks for all the help guys!

eisenmann race has some nice popping on deceleration

Mach@M-Force_Design · 01-13-2009, 06:31 PM

I believe all aftermarket mufflers made for the E90 do have that popping noise on deceleration.

bavarian19 · 01-13-2009, 07:08 PM

BMW Performance exhaust does. I just got mine installed and I LOVE IT!!!

pittyinSC · 01-13-2009, 08:35 PM

My pops a ton......like no really I have set off a car alarm before...haha albeit I was in a parking garage, but I can make it pop by just tapping the gas at any rpm. I have eisenhaus meisterchaft gt

ikon's got some popping action. its beautiful. i dont think you can go wrong with any of the exhausts offered for our cars

wuufer001 · 01-14-2009, 10:02 AM

i just got the Ikon and the res delete and it makes that sound, i'm loving that sound also

iwugolf · 01-14-2009, 12:41 PM

Ok and then just to straighten things out... The BMW performance exhaust is cat-back, so that means it eliminates the resonator and keeps the cats (two sets)? Would the riss racing exhaust eliminate the resonator and secondary cats? Thanks

The BMW perf exhaust removes the mid muffler at the y-pipe, while the piping goes up just past this and requires cutting of the stock pipe. The Riss Racing exhaust is a full bolt on and replaces the stock mid muffler. I am not sure if the RR exhaust utilizes the stock cats.

Not sure if it is a resonator/silencer/muffler but it is on the Y-pipe.

The exhaust will work, but would need the 335i trunk under tray because it is different than the N/A cars and a bracket welded up...so in all reality, nope it wont work
