You guys know where I can get some decent price for a Muffler for my bmw e36???
I don't want the ebay one.. I know they are fake and produce HIGH PITCH...
I'm not looking for a catback system, just wanted a DUAL Muffler...

What BRAND do people usually get for their e36s????
and what website can i get it from... and please don't say Bavarian Autosport.. they are to expensive...

thanks guys [headbang]

I like Dinan's however they are more expensive than Bav Auto! Have you looked at Supersprint, Remus (which I don't care for, bad experience) or other brands at Autohaus Arizona , one of our sponsors in the "Market Place" section? There is also BMP Design, a BMW retailer, HMS motorsports, Pelican Parts and other. Best of luck!

Like Big Daddy said SuperSprint is nice and so is Remus(which I have on my car...no bad experience there...at least not in the last two years), Bastuck, Ansa....they are all not toooo expensive but remember a decent exhaust system costs no matter who makes it.....

@Big Daddy: What happened with Remus? Just curious to know.....

If you had googled the names we gave you they will show up in the results! Others have links in the "Marketplace" section of this website.

My Remus on a 318is rusted out in less than a year and they would not stand behind it. I am guessing I got a bad system.

I have a 318is too, and I wanted to go dually as well. Go on ebay and get an authorized remus dealer. You can find them on ebay for 200. Bear in mind that if you get the dually, 1) it will not be bolt on, and 2) you will need to buy a new (or used) rear bumper cover (that black piece that fits into your bumper. That will be another $100 (used). I ended up not doing it at the time because my muffler was starting to go, and I decided to wait.

Good luck, and us posted as to what you end up doing.

please don't think I'm being a jerk, but did you read my post?


I said you would need a new bumper part (that black insert piece) off a 325, 323, or 328. And since there are two pipes you'd have to get a universal dually which would be a weld-on, not a direct bolt on.

I've never heard good things about magnaflow; although they sound wicked.
