My 325i exhaust is far to loud!!!!, it came with a scorpion lemans twin pipe, I'm sure it is knackered because it is far to loud and sounds rattley...

I want a different backbox, that still looks nice but not as loud.... what do people recommend??

Does anyone do a twin slash cut exhaust, I've looked but cannot see any for the E30 325i, btw I'm not keen on DTM's???

Thanks
Marc

I don't think mine is loud enough :cry:
But then it is standard BMW, they make a nice raspy noise and good burbly idle.

Bullit, I saw that one, its the same as the one on my car, although I'm sure the baffles are blown in mine, gonna take it off and give it a shake, if the baffles are blown, would it be louder than it should be???? I don't want to buy a new one and be just as loud!

I'm considering a standard one, but just dont like the looks of them, thats why I want a stainless one! I always liked the standard backbox on my old E36 M3, was just right, looked good and sounded good, but not to loud when driving normally....!!

Dunno yet, hadn't thought about it really!!

Not 100% sure if I can sell it, as when I bought the car, I said to the guy (my mate) that if I didn't want the exhaust he could have it back... but I dont think he'll want to.

Best to wait and see, if I get another one..

Anyone know what a used Scorpion Lemans twin pipe back box is worth??
