If it does, you could always compensate by deleting the secondaries which certainly frees up some power, too (if tuned properly).

Curious, does the 128i have a center muffler? All the same components as the 3er (catted headers, catted front pipes (secondaries), center muffler/y-pipe, rear muffler)?
Yep, I still got my stock one sitting in my parent's attic. That might be a good solution. Will have to get my nice pretty tips welded up to it though!

I'm worried about it being TOO quiet. I was thinking the stock muffler would do that, but an aftermarket, straight-thru muffler would be a good middle ground.

And yes the 128i has a center muffler, I'm pretty sure the exhaust is identical besides length and shape.


Oh I forgot to mention my exhaust pops and cracks like I have a burble tune, especially when it's cold. Around 3k RPM if I let off, or tap the gas lightly it goes POP POP POP. Sometimes when I shift there'll be a pop inbetween gears. Sounds good lol.
