3" Straight Pipes

MDamman003 · 07-01-2014, 08:53 AM

hey everyone.

I just had a full 3" straight pipe exhaust setup installed on my 2008 335xi...i have the stock catted downpipes. It is LOUD. I have researched this topic and just looking for a little help from everyone. I am looking for a cheaper alternative. A few options I have been thinking about are resonators or a single resonator, or some type of muffler or 2 mufflers. I like the sound but it is just too loud and I live in a condo and I leave at 8 am haha...Today was the first morning and I got out of there as fast as I could.

So just looking for maybe 2 universal canister type mufflers to have welded in or resonator/s or any other options which may tone it down a bit but still give it a sweet sound...depending on prices, and/or donations, I would be maybe willing to test out a few options for people who are interested in seeing how certain options sound

Any help is greatly appreciated at this point

Is it single or dual 3" you did ? A muffler and a resonator would help a lot (I have COBB single 3" and it's not that bad and there is one resonator and a muffler).

it is dual 3"
