Have a Eisenmann backbox on a good full system.

I know most of the system wont fit and to be honest, DTM tailpipes and the ugly retangular back-box won't look right on a prefacelift even if it fits and sounds brilliant so really wondering what else would be the best alternative that'll sound decent and not be restrictive too?

Engine is a 3.6 but may grow abit when I find out the extent of a rebuild it needs once I take the head and sump off.

Could do or just cut the tips off as they are fairly long before they turn up but the big ugly box might look alittle shite on a chromie with its shallow rear panel.



Was thinking an E30 M3 system might be perfect alright for fit and things but wondering would it have enough flow for a S38.... keep meaning to check if the S38 pipes are bigger than 50mm but forget every time I'm in the workshop.

Would not flow enough in my opinion. I had a 2x2.25" on my S50.
