Muffler delete on 35i

alloutwarn · 11-02-2016, 08:49 PM

Anyone running a straight pipe on their 35i? Curious to see how it sounds. Was thinking about possibly doing a catless down pipe with muffler delete, not sure If it would be too gnarly. Also thought about doing an electronic cutout, anyone tried those?

Not sure why on earth you would do that...

It will be very loud.
And with the design of X5, you will get a lot of drone.

If you are interested, you can run my muffler.

Call me up next week, I am out of town for SEMA show.

dont do it, midrange drone will be terrible. did it in my 335 years back and highway driving was impossible

alloutwarn · 11-06-2016, 10:40 PM

I'm currently doing a catless dp with a muffler delete and I heard that it sounds beautiful!
Just need to the job at the right shop...

Would love to hear it!

alloutwarn · 12-11-2016, 02:00 PM

so I pulled the trigger and did the muffler delete, my buddies shop made a nice custom stainless Y pipe all mandrel bent into quad 3.5" gloss black tips. Other then cold start its not nearly as loud as I expected, quite mellow actually. I added a Burger Tuning intake as well, thinking about a high flow cat DP next. ill get some sound clips and pics soon.

TOPEC · 12-11-2016, 02:35 PM

post some sound clips please

sbinshihon · 12-11-2016, 05:58 PM

Clips or it didn't happen!!!

alphaod · 12-12-2016, 07:57 PM

I'm interested in how it sounds especially how it sounds on a longer trip.

My friend's GTR has a very nice exhaust, but you're practically deaf by the end of any longer trip because of the droning.
