Fall-line motorsports had one of the first Dinan M3 systems installed. I had the chance to hear it a few weeks ago. Nice clean mellow sound and the black tips looked great. The only thing I didn't like was the two non-functional tips. I would compare the sound level to an Eisenmann Sport or Remus Sport level.

they should have just use one flat rectangular tip like what saleen does on the mustangs... that way the tips are still functional.

Man, I can't decide between this system or the encore Ti system. My dealer is offering me a really good deal on the dinan but the Ti looks so good...

I have the 3.62 diff coming in so the dealer would put on my exhaust and diff at the same time. Maybe I will go with Dinan... I am just worried about my my exhaust in the winter with the two fake tips. Haha

Non-functional tips are just retarded. I'm sorry...but I could never spend money on that.

The tips don't bother me somehow.... I mean there are 3 non function vents on the car. Stock... Tips are for looks anyways... So why is it such a big deal they chose their tip design solely on looks...

I do understand that some people will not like it tho..


I'm gona do a 2nd cat delete also.. So I'm excited to see how it will sound..

+1, going to do the same (just deciding on which cat delete to choose!) Will have my dinan exhaust installed with my 3.62 diff on May 15th. I'll let you guys know how it goes!

Saw that too, with the 15% off before I guess we still saved 50 bucks on this price

It just doesn't look like a quality product at first glance like say an Eisenmann for instance

The tips look like something made in a highschool machine shop. They're very thin and flimsy looking.
I would at least like it if they would just ceramic coat the whole thing so the cans will hide better behind the bumper

How is this going? Any reviews? They should have made the exhaust tips like the ones on the new X6 5.0 or 7 series.

got mine and installed it... the build quality is good... nothing special.. not super pretty... but built well.. and will last.....

to me the fitment is the most important thing.. which the Dinan fits perfect... and has a little metastability for you rear diffuser people...

you can raise and lower it...


it is quiet.... quieter then my Eise sport was... but i never fully broke in the Dinan before i did a 2nd cat delete...

now.. i can honestly say its Perfect sound... in the car it doesn't drove and with the windows up you can barely hear it.. with windows down you can defiantly hear it.. it doesn't have that mustang corvette tone.. it has a lil more exotic tone now.... like a mix of American v8 and Ferrari v8....

its really fantastic.. and im stoked i finally have a note... look.... and efficiency i have been looking for....


i really dig the black tip look also.... def has more personality then the polished tips you normally see... it looks more raw... more badass imo...



so Dinan mufflers with 2nd cat delete!!! +++++!

i am about to make a thread about my cat delete.. me and a buddy did it..

Anybody in SoCal have the DINAN Exhaust? I'd like to audition it. I really loved the DINAN Exhuast on my old e36....

I love the sound of my system, definitely more aggressive but not obnoxiously loud. No drone and the black tips look great!
