MagnaFlow Performance Muffler with Dual Exhaust Tip Set-Up On MY BMW E90 328i N52!

[@mcmillanvideos]

I read a lot about the 'res delete' stuff online when I started with my 328... I was kind of surprised no one complained about drone. I think some people just aren't bothered by it so they just think it's just part of the 'sound of the exhaust'... But a resonator's job is to reduce resonance with the body of the car, or alter it. The sound outside of the car is also changed differently by a resonator or a muffler... Rarely do people cover all of these aspects when they're dialing in the muffler sound they want... so thanks for all of you considerations and taking us along with you on your exhaustive journey. har.

Perfect w magnaflow without resonator

[@miguel141980]

I understand what you mean when it comes to the sound but to be honest, I really like the way it sounds now. Just my opinion although we all have our preferences. I like the subtle sound! I have a 328 as well and definitely getting this set up you have now. But don't give up, keep working on the sound you are looking for! Love your videos. P.S. Do you have a link to this MagnaFlow Muffler??

[@InlineSixAuto]

Thanks for support! I am probably going to keep the set up like this for awhile. But here’s a link to the exact muffler www.magnaflow.com/products/12198-performance-muffler-magnaflow-5-x-8-oval-straight-through-performance-muffler?currency=USD&variant=18434144141427&Google%20Shopping

[@iamlucy6464]

Hey, I love your channel! I have an E90 2011. I too mod and repair my own BMW. Your recent video that involved the throttle tuner, I took your advice and got it! I love how it changes the acceleration without doing major work; one of many great ideas that you have mentioned. I had a question, I love the way your front bumper and your rear bumper look, are they the 330i look? or the m? Keep making more videos!

[@InlineSixAuto]

That's awesome to hear! Glad I was able to help you enjoy your own BMW more. As for my bumpers, I have the M-Sport replica front and rear bumpers. They're labelled as "m-Tech". I have them linked in the description of this video!

[@InlineSixAuto]

You would have to have them paint-matched at a body shop. You'll just receive them primed and ready to paint.

[@gramzeey]

i have the same muffler and res delete it’s so so deep and i love it. planning on getting secondary cat delete soon, i’ve been running this set up for a while now and want something new haha!! congrats yo

[@InlineSixAuto]

That’ll definitely turn even more heads from what I’ve heard lol. I think that setup has the best sound for the N52. Also you’re still single exit right?

[@gramzeey]

@@InlineSixAuto yessir single exit!

[@lordxzynthasius]

@@gramzeey How's the droning with this setup? i was thinking about doing the same to my 328i as well, I'm pretty new to all of this so just trying my best to get as much information as I can lol

[@AlmightyEye]

Should have got the AWE Touring MidPipe and exhaust setup for $1,100 and achieved the same sound as the original setup you had, but minus the drone. Even the performance 3" midpipe by AWE has a small resonator. Don't EVER delete your resonator. That's a bad idea unless your project is a track only car. I have the AWE Touring exhaust on my 2017 320i and it sounds AMAZING! I do have full bolt ons, recirculating Diverter valve, Mishimoto Oil Catch Can (a must on all turbo BMWs) and a hi-flo catted Downpipe, dual stacked racing FMIC with a stage 2 tune. It's the perfect combo. The gas savings of a 320i daily driver on Comfort Mode, but has enough ball$ to rip a stock 335i on Sport+ mode.

[@InlineSixAuto]

? Your 2017 is way different than my 2009 bro. They're completely different chassis with different engines lol. AWE doesn't even make an exhaust for E90 328i's so idk what you're talking about I should have gotten it for mine. Glad you were able achieve the sound you want though.

[@AlmightyEye]

@@InlineSixAuto maybe AWE doesn't make one for yours, but there are plenty of other companies that do tho correct? The chasis isn't that different dude. The car literally looks like an F30. Basically the same freaking chasis. One google search yielded some results. Borla makes almost the same exhaust as AWE for the same price, $1,100, FOR YOUR CAR, and this includes a high performance midpipe. You went through 6 different setups and ended up with an inferior setup. 😂. You most likely spent more than $1,100 on labor alone going through those 6 failed attempts. Let's not even discuss the fact that your OEM exhaust system is literally worthless junk now and there's nothing to put back on if u decide to sell the car one day and sell the upgraded exhaust. 🤡 And it was just a suggestion, if my comment rubbed u the wrong way dude, you're sensitive. The point was you could have bought an all in one solution instead of chopping up your cars exhaust several times and ending up with a crappy sounding exhaust after 6 attempts. That's the damn point. If u don't like my suggestion, great, but having an attitude about it just shows you're feminine and can't stand criticism. Maybe you intentionally fumbled this for the sake of "content", ignoring the fact that your subscribers will also be wasting their time and money following your tard antics. Good luck with your channel, you're gonna need it with an attitude like that.

I got a 320i and am thinking of doing a muff/res delete, will it still sound fairly aggressive even tho it’s 320i not 328i?

This sounds sooo good, I had one question though. What headlights are you using? I really like them

theyre my factory headlights fitted with aftermarket LED Rings and had the inside housing painted satin black

[@exitious7352]

Well you live and you learn, haha. I remember asking you what you thought I should do a month or two ago. After all my research and asking, I’ve decided on a magnaflow 12148. No res delete as everyone with a lot of experience has said not to. Sucks it didn’t work for you but I’m sure it wasn’t too expensive to get it off and back on just to see. Like I said before, I just want that deep rumble and not for it to be super loud. What you got out of this is what I want. No drone, but sounds good. Thanks for sharing with us man. :)

[@gramzeey]

i have the same muffler with a res delete! sounds so good and the drone is very minimal. makes the car sound very deep

[@exitious7352]

@@gramzeey Huh, well that’s good to hear. Glad you dont have unbearable drone

[@InlineSixAuto]

Exactly! Overall it’s just fun to learn and to experience modifying the car to your own liking. Are you going with a dual tip setup too? Or staying single exit?

[@exitious7352]

@@InlineSixAuto Single exit. I much prefer the look of the dual, but I’m a college student at a summer internship right now and they don’t pay me enough, haha. So can’t really afford to go that route just yet. May I ask which MF muffler you got? The part #, in particular?

[@Keenan35i]

[@broskiez2641]

Whats the differnce between the Magnaflow muffler replacement sizing? Does inlet/outlet and length and diameter matter? Would it be a good idea to do a muffler swap on a stock 328i? If so which muffler and tip setup?

[@InlineSixAuto]

If you're not going to do a dual conversion like I did and just keep the single exit, I would just do a muffler and resonator delete. Its the cheapest option yet sounds better than any aftermarket muffler you could buy for the e90 328i.

[@anjru_]

Looks good and sounds good!

[@jaycarrero45]

Hey great video what’s the model number of that muffler

[@Credman1883]

Every BMW video starts with the same music 😂😂😂

[@AZEOforreal]

That is exactly what I want actually. I don’t want anything loud, I am getting a touring and our neighborhood has a “loud exhaust sound” policy so that should be just enough. So, you got a Y pipe and a Mangaflow exhaust, right? LMK exactly what you ordered, I got a little confused when I was watching and lost track.

[@InlineSixAuto]

all you really need to order is the magnaflow muffler and exhaust tips. Whatever shop you take it to do the work should be able to provide all the piping including Y pipe. This is the link to tips amzn.to/3bIXhK4. I Think the type of muffler I got is the 12148 by MagnaFlow

[@dominicojardin2770]

I have a 2006 325i I want that deep rumble that you like but I don’t know where to start this is my first car any pointers or any idea on what to get (on a budget).

[@InlineSixAuto]

All you need is a muffler delete and or resonator delete. Shouldn’t be more than $200 at your local muffler shop

[@stephenhaughton1160]

You should put on an electric exhaust cut off

[@cryptocrate1000]

Did you have problems with droning when you had the muffler and reasonator delete with the single exit?

[@InlineSixAuto]

There was minor drone but not nearly as bad as when I went dual

[@iamlucy6464]

Hey again, I have another question. I’m looking for a good sounding exhaust system, a Low Rough Growl for my E90 328i 2011. Any good ideas as to what to get? I want to avoid exhaust and resonator deletes.

[@InlineSixAuto]

You’ll have to delete something if you want any sort of growl. If you just get a an aftermarket muffler it won’t really have any change in sound from stock from what I’ve seen with my personal experience. Hopefully someone else can chime in with their ideas or experience or you can continue doing some research on some BMW forums.

[@iamlucy6464]

@@InlineSixAuto Thank you so much for replying it means a lot to get your support! I will probably delete the muffler.

[@InlineSixAuto]

@@iamlucy6464 for sure man anytime! Also you can always put the muffler and or resonator back on if you want to go back to being quiet or if you need to sell the car

[@iamlucy6464]

Well I got a flowmaster straight pipe, kept muffler only did resonator delete. I have issues with not enough acceleration, what do you recommend? I have the adjustable throttle tuner, and k@n air filter. I was told an enclosed cold air intake, what else, besides that, could boost my acceleration, of course a turbo or supercharge but I’m not ready for either of those yet.

[@InlineSixAuto]

@@iamlucy6464 so you lost power after doing that exhaust work?

[@kb0386]

Ik a good way to get rid of drone ride with windows down music up listening to the exhaust scream instead of dampening the cars exhaust note

[@InlineSixAuto]

Even still, you’d just hear exhaust 100% of the time which is what I don’t want as mentioned 😂

[@marniionmee2140]

If you had to keep one would you keep the f30 or the e90 ?

[@InlineSixAuto]

E90 all the way

[@luisgutierrez8634]

I was thinking of putting a race muffler without the resonator but I’m afraid it’ll lose that deep tone. Now I’m thinking of just putting a bottle resonator with no muffler. I run a single exhaust set up and I have 3.5 inch tips in my closet…

[@InlineSixAuto]

Is there a reason you want to put a race muffler? I think just deleting the muffler and resonator will give you the best sound since you have single exit as you heard in the video

[@luisgutierrez8634]

@@InlineSixAuto okay so on my e90 325i I’ve had a muffler and resonator delete for almost a year and yes it sounds good, you get burbles, etc but idk sometimes at warm idle it’s quiet and when I pull up on my friends they don’t really hear me anymore I just want a loud and deep tone more like an actual exhaust sound with less Rasp more rumble maybe it’s my exhaust or I just simply can’t get the sound I want out of a n52 :(

[@luisgutierrez8634]

@@InlineSixAuto also I seen one that claims to have loud deep racing sounds thought it could be somewhat better than a performance or sport muffler

[@InlineSixAuto]

@@luisgutierrez8634 I honestly don't think you could get much louder than that unless you could try deleting the secondary cats. or install headers but then you most likely wont pass emissions. From what I've seen installing any sort of 'performance' or 'race' muffler will sound pretty much the same as a muffler and or resonator delete. The only benefit of the muffler would be that it would tone down the drone as I mentioned in the video. I don't think it would add anything in regards to the sound. But yeah the N52 has a very short cap on sound and performance unfortunately. But hey its reliable lol.

Yes it works for either. as long as its an E90 sedan. I dont think it will work on an E92 coupe

Sounded way better with a muffler/resonator delete. The pops and burbles are gone. It sounds muted now. Rip.

Definitely doesn’t sound as good but I’m chillin with how it is. At one point I was considering putting the stock muffler back on cause I was so over the drone lol. But I feel like this is a good compromise. Still some rumble to match the exterior look with no drone 👌🏼
