BMW E46 328Ci w/ muffler delete drive by

This is a 2000 328ci with the muffler removed, piping welded from the second resonator back, and tips on the end. Both resonators are still in tact and i'm running the oem headers and intake.

Car looks great! The sound is unique as well. I'm considering a 328ci myself and stumbled across your vid. Major props on a clean E46 man!

@Koolaid30165 Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated and let me know if I can ever help you out or make suggestions for vendors/mods/etc

That sounds great. Have you noticed any increase/decrease in power?

[johncdonnelly]

@shocker792 nope.  Just for sound and looks.

@johncdonnelly Sounds great, I want to do this to mine. Did you just delete both mufflers and leave the resonators? What size piping? How did you get quads?

@shocker792 Well, the non-m3 only comes with one muffler (not two). So I removed that and left both resonators in place. I also have the stock intake and header. I have heard this done to cars with just straight pipes (no resonators) along with a car with a muffler delete and aftermarket headers... both sounded WAY TOO LOUD in my opinion. Just deleting the muffler gives a perfect tone IMO. As for piping, it's 3 inches if I'm not mistaken and the quad was 100% custom work done by a race shop
