Gale..the Eberspaecher to me...(m) (archive)

seems to be just a great deal..particularly since
it is a real quality item...wouldn't consider
Ansa or Bosal. Another option would be to eliminate the CAT. Michigan has abandoned
its emission testing..thank god..so that may be
another way to get a little more grunt and reduce
backpressure not to mention weight slightly.
The Eberspaecher is about half the price a Supersprint is. Many think because its Stainless
it will outlast an Aluminized carbon steel muffler. Casing may, but internal baffling can
blow out pretty quick which incidently Borla's
has a reputation for.
Thought your initial choice was a good one.

$414 for the resonator, $458 for the rear exhaust. I'm not sure if they need any additional hardware to mate up to the stock cat. or to join the resonator to the muffler.

I bought the Eberspaecher's for $370 total, delivered, for both from Zigmund's (deliberate typo). As you can see, the cost savings was a strong persuader.
One other option you might consider is to remove the resonator entirely & just go with straight thru-pipes to the muffler, or likewise, keep the resonator & delete the muffler. Both options have been tried on the e34 board with 535i's with pleasing results, Tim Collins I think(?). With mine, I thought keeping it quiet might save a ticket or two. I also like having a sleeper.
