Subject: <E36-M3> Supersprint muffler impressions

     Last night I installed the DTM SS Supersprint muffler on my '97 M3. 
     First of all, the muffler is gorgeous and looks very well made (to my 
     untrained eye).
     
     This is the second Supersprint I've installed. Last one was on my '95 
     325iC. Both fit like a glove. The tail pipes are perfectly centered. I 
     am a strong believer in the Supersprint products (eventhough 
     everything else Italian I have keeps breaking down).
     
     Regarding power gain, I have no idea... I guess I am supposed to gain 
     1hp or so... I am patiently waiting for master LANDSHARK to release a 
     chip for my car which should improve the gain. The muffler sounds 
     great though! It makes a low rumbling sound through out the RPM range. 
     It does get more throaty at higher RPMs, but nothing too loud. The 
     muffler can be heard more inside the car. Overall, it is a little 
     louder than the stock one, just perfect!
     
     The DTM tips look great. They are highly polished SS pieces. On my 
     325i I had the regular round tips. Frankly, both look great. It is 
     just a matter of what you want and how much money you want to spend.
