Exhaust Video - C32 Custom Magnaflow

I got my car back today! The custom Magnaflow system is installed and sounds good. I can notice a huge difference in low end power with not so much difference in top end.

Here is the video.

Sorry about the video, I don't know what happened.

i can't wait to hear it... did you do a twin-dual-tip setup like the C55? I'm downloading the video to my HD, maybe it works that way

sweeeet sounding exhaust! awesome!

I especially liked the justaposition between the calm clip-clop of footsteps to the car and the beastly sound once you rev it up!

Sounds great. You deleted the rear cats at the same time right?

The ending of the vid reminds me of Blair Witch Project film techniques... Tips sticking out kinda far no?

I'm still downloading, but do you mind if I add it to the Exhaust Video compilation? Unless some mode were to create an exhaust video/audio sticky like the pictures one.

ellery - I used a single twin tip. I was thinking about the dual, but after looking under the car, it seemed like too much work for me. I think we will have to modify the spare tire holder in order to make any room.

congchina - Thanks!

boohooramblers - I know what you mean...I was trying to get it done in a hurry.

Jgsx - My guy would not remove the rear cats. I might bring it back to them with some high flow cats for them to install. But, after your post, I don't think it would be of any benefit to removing / replacing them. Sound right?

DirtyVegasMB - Yeah, I hear ya. I guess a camera man position is out of the question for me! The tips stick out a little more than I wanted them to, but in order for the exhaust to stay straight, I was told it was needed. It is starting to grow on me....very slowly.

Bif powell - Please use the video in any shape or form. We might want to edit out the part when I pick the camera up, or I can make a new one in daylight.

1fastC32 - It goes completely silent at 3 grand. However, before and after that, it is extremely loud in the cabin. I’m not so sure that I like it this loud, and now I might consider sound damping or after the wife hears it, maybe going with a muffler that is not so loud. Don’t get me wrong, I love the way it sounds, but talking on a cell phone while driving is not going to work anymore. Any ideas or suggestions on how to quiet her down a little inside the cabin?

I forgot that I edited out the part where I picked the camera up.

The old one is HERE.

Yeah, deleting the rear cats is mainly to make the exhaust louder, but yours already sounds pretty mean

It was their standard 3" stainless pipe. The muffler is a Magneflow 14588 with custom tips.

After much driving and yapping from the wife, I have decided to go with the Eisenmann Cat back system. I will be removing the system in a few weeks when the new one arrives. I'm very picky about looks and I agree that the tips stick out too far. Plus, the drone at 50-70 is louuud and my 1 year old that I drive to day care every morning has to hate it.

I know that the Eisenmann will be a little more quiet. I had one on my E46 and it sounded great.

You know, I wonder how the stock exhaust with the resonator in place, but the secondaries removed would sound . . .

Nice, do it.

Removing the secondaries raised the exhaust's volume right to where I want it. There are just a few tones that I don't like, and I'm wondering if leaving the stock resonator in place would help remove those while keeping most of the volume . . . too bad I'm not going to try it, my exhaust has already been through too many iterations in the last couple weeks.
