Step right up and get em while their hot... http://www.seffects.com/parts/BRO248016.htm These were very popular up till a few years ago when I think they discontinued them. Not too loud, prolly less than Stromung, more than SS. Must be old stock. I know nothing about the sale, availability, etc. __________________ My Former Rides 1999 318ti Alpine White, Cali Roof, Dinan goodies 1996 318ti Hellrot California Edition | | | 03-16-2006, 11:31 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: PA Posts: 1,906 | anyone actually have this installed? my stromung is too loud..lol __________________ | | | 03-16-2006, 11:56 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 | Might want to ask on the Yahoo group as they tend to be, uh, "long standing" fans of the ti. Or search here for Bosal or Brospeed. Not much pertaining to the Bosal unit but he's an old exhaust comparo: http://www.unofficialbmw.com/e36/per...aust_test.html __________________ My Former Rides 1999 318ti Alpine White, Cali Roof, Dinan goodies 1996 318ti Hellrot California Edition | | | 03-17-2006, 12:20 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Thousand Oaks, California Posts: 343 | Is it direct bolt on?

Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Denver, CO Posts: 3,925 | I'll let you know as soon as it gets delivered, I just bought one. Any interest in my Dinan muffler? I've never seen another one like it, ever. List price is $799 for the muffler. I will consider $ or trade for other cool part(s). I'll probably just cut the Bosal muffler off and weld the Dinan muffler back on, I guess I'll have to see how the Bosal sounds first. Clegg with the SVT Focus has a Bosal system. It's got a really great sound to it. __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 03-17-2006, 01:21 AM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2004 Location: Marietta, GA Posts: 124 | here is a link to a prior thread http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=2195 gets a little off topic at the end, got some feedback.

I need a new exhaust because the guy who owned my car before me was older and wanted to apparently sound like a ricer and went and put a cheap autozone 3ARACING dtm style muffler. I will give it to him becase he did do a good install it is nice looking. Other than that it sounds like a ricer. Well first one to to get the BOSAL installed let us know how it is. I'm ordering a DASC and thinking about the NickG Stage 3. Hope this exhuast does good with it. Someone on the other forums was saying the BOSAL could kill power with the DASC any thoughts? Its not making sense to me. __________________ Take Chances,Drive Fast, Be Safe!

I just ordered one, my stock muffler is almost rusted out, this will look good in its place This can't be any louder than the muffler that was on my m5 when I bought it. A genuine apex N1 without the sound baffle installed! It was so loud I could hardly hear the stock stereo. I installed the sound damper and kept it for a few months before selling it to a friend who wanted to go the way of the rice. | | | 03-17-2006, 04:29 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Thousand Oaks, California Posts: 343 | Is it direct bolt on?

And does anyone have a picture of this installed? __________________ 1993 325is Hellrot Tribute to: 97 318ti Montreal Blue R.I.P 96 318ti Schwartz II | | | 03-17-2006, 05:01 PM | #13 | doesn't care about you.

I just got my bosal catback in, it only took 4 days! It is the best $160 I ever spent! It came wrapped up so tight it took me like 15 mins. to unwrap it. But, it was well worth it. The whole exhaust was chrome, i believe the picture on the site doesn't show it in all chrome. It sounds nice, not to loud and not to soft. I couldn't get any pictures because my digital camera craped out on me. I'm going to try to make a sound clip or something if someone doesn't get to it first. I takes 2 bolts( That take more time to take off than anything.) and 3 Hangers, real simple install. This is really a good buy if anyone is looking into a new exhaust. __________________ Take Chances,Drive Fast, Be Safe!

Hopefully it will be here by the weekend so I can install it when I install my cat. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
