Jodi,
Just replaced mine with oem style muffler. Quiet as a mouse. What kind of muffler system is on your car?

The dual system was only on the '88 528e. The earlier 528e system will not fit unless you change everything from the manifold back, possibly even the manifold (not sure).

Howard '88 528e
I recently purchased a 1988 528e BMW. I need some advice, Is is Normal to Hear the Muffler On these Cars? I noticed it has 2 (two) Exhausts not one like I have noticed on other Cars.As Soon as I excelerate the Interior Of the Car Becomes really loud, once The Car goes into higher gear it Lessons. My car is An Automatic Engine.Thank you in advance for your knowledge in this matter, Jodi
