Tmac911 · 12-12-2008, 08:53 PM

Hey guys, iam thinking doing the muffler delete. However the muffler guy said he has done it on a 335 before and said its REALLY loud, is it true?? Also i plan on getting the 3.7 TI tips from cyba would there be problem welding them onto the straight pipes?

Kit523 · 12-12-2008, 08:59 PM

well with mufffler delete only not TOO loud!
sound like stock but louder and deeper!

Tmac911 · 12-13-2008, 03:09 AM

But it cost only like $140 to do the muffler delete...

Gen_E92 · 12-13-2008, 04:11 AM

just do secondary cat delete...muffler delete on 335 doesn't sound good at all

Tmac911 · 12-13-2008, 04:18 AM

^ or ill do that and its alot cheaper too my... 2 of my frds did muffler delete today for $60
but for me its like $140 since its alot more work?

does taking off the secondary cat make it significantly louder?

no, i think he is saying that just do the second cat delete and keep the mufflers!

Tmac911 · 12-13-2008, 05:08 AM

yup i understand haha
would secondary cat delete cause any codes? the muffler guy said it might fk with the computers??

charlie335 · 12-13-2008, 05:45 PM

the muffler delete will be way too loud and it'll drone like crazy too. not to mention that it kind of makes it sound like a ricer w/ a fartcan... get magnaflow mufflers or something instead if you want it cheap

Prowess Symphony · 12-13-2008, 06:43 PM

Have any of you guys heard a 335 without mufflers? It doesnt sound rice at all. Please dont randomly say things just for the sake of saying them.

I have my mufflers off, because I wanted some noise before deciding which aftermarket to get. I decided not to get aftermarket now, and just leave them off. Its quieter then a mustang gt for reference, I tested side by side.

Any mustang or muscle car is louder. The sound is good and throaty and not rice.

Actually it Sounds Great not much drone in personally. i have a buddy did muffler delete on his 335xi. (it cost him $250+ with 2 X 4'' magnaflow tips.) Unfortunately, the car was sold few month ago. otherwise i can post a sound clip here.

Turkishexpress · 12-14-2008, 02:39 AM

I just did the muffler delete and it does drone quiet a bit but its not too bad for my taste. However the car does sound a shit load meaner. Its kind of like a louder g35/350z sound without the fake purrrr... Here is the thread where you can get a sound clip. In person, its a bit louder...

Terrance28 · 12-17-2008, 05:05 PM

Yeah it does sound great, i've been gong back and forth about it but I think I will pull the trigger on them.

jjy2 · 12-18-2008, 02:51 AM

REDSKY · 12-20-2008, 12:06 AM

I just did it its so badass. it sounds like stock except louder and deeper and mean as hell. i love it a little drony but i dont really care. i really like it and i got it done for 100$ but i hate muffler shops they always seem to not understand what you want its b.s

McLuVan · 12-20-2008, 12:20 AM

You will not have any problems with error codes or anything since you are not messing with the primary cats.
