3.0si muffler / back box delete, video + pics attached!

[BeemerMad]

@BeemerMad, I'm working in Birmingham currently, an hours drive from you. Could always head towards me if there are no better options and go for a quick run somewhere like the M42 or something?

I'm up here Mon-Thurs every week

Sounds good. Will drop you a pm sometime this week

So to sum up what I understand: just deleting the muffler/back box with be loud? But to get the pops and all the good stuff you can remove the muffler? Or will you need to remove cats res and muffler? Ooooor?

I've seen/ heard dans muffler alteration but would like to hear a complete muffler delete, anyone near East Sussex? That wouldn't mind me hearing in person

Luke

I only know of my location and Andy's but I am probably and closest to you at present, I am near Woking, Surrey.

Unless anyone else wishes to announce they are closer?

Should list where people are so we know who is closest to whom to show the exhaust off

That would be great, are you getting it done this friday or have you had it done?

Definitely would like to hear it in the flesh

Remove back box. Get lots of pops, bangs and burbles! True straight six noise. Cannot beat it

Would I still get the pops without a resonator? And would removing the cats make it louder? :|

 

[Beetlegav]

.Yeah I'd highly recommend not removing the cat! It's loud without the back box, mines forever popping and banging.

Hope this works

Nice! Sounds different to mine though, guess the m54 and n52 engines have a slightly different tone!
Did you just do the backbox or resonators/cats as well?

 

[///Mikerw]

So I turned up at infinity exhausts Bristol, http://infinityexhausts.rtrk.co.uk/?scid=137318&kw=10259431&pub_cr_id=33009245816 for 12 o' clock

Car straight onto ramp..

And promptly remove back box..

Pick some new tips and 60 mins later all

Sleeves fitted to back box ready to swop over as required or not :evil:

Overall Very pleased with both the service and workmanship

And only £100 with full swop out facility

What's not to like :roll:

Only a back box delete, everything else intact.

Just back box, and fully reversible as well

Has anyone in the Norwich area had this done to a 2.5i m54 engined so I could drop by and have a listen?

[ben g]

Stop tempting me!! I'm not paying 200, but i'd happily pay 100 for it.

The guys above with the removable stuff is pretty good.

 

[Beetlegav]

Could have had mine removable. Wasn't fussed.
It is removable....... With an angle grinder :lol:

 

[ben g]

:lol: very true.

 

[Xiaxio]

I don't know why you guys are charged so much unless I'm confused on our money values from $ in U.S and quid. But my buddys exhaust guy put on my current muffler he does a great job and my buddy said his exhaust guy would only charge 40$ to straight pipe.not including tips. :?
