Just installed Magnaflow Exhaust on E90
Here's a few pics and a couple of sound clips. One outside and inside. The shop that I took it to did an amazing job. You'll see in the pics that they custom welded a stablizer piece to "join" the exhaust.
Anyway, the sound is awesome. Can't beat it for the $$. Sound Clips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwroCb2JAyQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgw-tIFIoNc

Thats awesome buddy.
Cant be that when you take into account the cost. Looks really really good. I thought I read in another thread that this setup muffler doesnt work with the coupe because of the bumper clearance?! Or are these diff mufflers? |

These mufflers work in both coupe and sedan form. It all depends on the shop and their fabrication/customization skills.

The issue is the total length of the muffler body and tips relative to the Coupe bumper, which it is longer than the Sedan by a couple of inches. So your particular Sedan installation is fine with the 14816 mufflers because the muffler body can be adjusted by the OEM pipes to extend the tips just right over the Sedan's bumper cut outs without touching the bumper itself. In the Coupe case, the tips are too short over the muffler body to allow any extension of the tips beyond the bumper cut outs to make them fit right because the muffler body touches the bumper. So in that particular case the bumper was cut to place the tips farther out. Nice installation, by the way. |

I was able to sit in this car and compare it to my Eisenmann Race. It is not quite as loud but it has a great sound. I did not hear any droning compared to mine. This is definitely a great exhaust and for the money it is in a league of its own.

If that looks good to you, great. But that's something that have to be said for others thinking about the same mod. |

Nah, just the angle of the pic. The tips are from factory and wasn't custom welded on. It's aligned perfectly.
I asked my installer to have the tips protrude no more than 1/2" so it's similar to OEM.

At least we know for sure that the Magnaflow 14816 mufflers are the perfect model for the Sedan, thanks to E90mdrei. |
