Stebro Exhaust/Muffler

Trevendous03 · 06-08-2012, 11:05 AM

Anyone here have a Stebro exhaust? I have been searching for more affordable options than BMW PE, and the Stebro sounds nice on the one YouTube clip I found, but I can't find pictures of it anywhere on an E90.

It seems like the exhaust is pretty new for the E90...

The reason I don't want the BMW PE is because I don't think it's worth spending $1,000 on just a muffler that's mainly just for looks and sound.

Stebro sucks. Sounds nice on the outside, drones like hell on the inside. And not to mention its loud in all the wrong parts. Loud at 2250-2500 rpms and gets more and more QUIET as you get on the gas.

If you don't think the BMW PE is worth the $1000 b/c its mainly looks and sound, then save your money totally. All exhaust for n/a Bimmers fall in this category, and the Stebro if anything will sound worse. If you insist on getting the sound, just go custom + magnaflow, or custom + resonator delete, etc.

+1. Magnaflow gets the best reviews out here. I had one in but I had custom pipes with no res or cats. A lot of drone. Those who keep cats and res or use the magnaflow cat back res love the sound. I still have my magnaflow. $50 to whoever wants it.
