if you are just looking for sound i would suggest a muffler delete, cheap and gives you sound . if you want it louder you can also delete the res but that will make it really loud.

Go with Bmw performance exhaust....its about $1k and it will not affect your warranty since its made by bmw lol.
There are other brands like remus, ikon. They would affect your warranty but if there is something wrong with your car, the dealership can always blame it on aftermarket stuff!

Get it from tischer and install it at a muffler shop.

Muffler delete is also a good choice, i wanted to do it but didnt want to get pulled over every 2mins lol

Cool, hope it works out well. What kinda tips are you getting? Resonated?

(FYI - Another cheap option is to get a 330 muffler - it has much better flow and sound than the 325/328).

no real gain just nice sound and you chop off about 50lbs(?) or so of weight.

with a muffler delete youll sound like a ricer. thats my opinion. Some like it and its to eaches own. its all personal preference. but if honda is what you are going for then do it. again thats my opinion yall dont hate me for saying it.

if you want a cheap exhaust that sounds good go with the ebay muffler. top speed. it sounds great, sporty, and deep. you can delete the res if need be. next bet would be RE Ikon or Remus for price.

if none of those do it for you definitely go PE. but its real expensive.

You can get a muffler delete at a lot of auto shops that do muffler and exhaust work. just google a nearby muffler, auto shop. usually runs about 100-200$
