If you have already upgraded to the Turner midpipes this is your chance to step up to the full valved catback. See the details when creating your new Full Catback! With this Valved muffler and all installation hardware you can add to your Turner midpipes to make a full exhaust. When it comes to shopping for exhausts you want to find one that suits your driving style and sound preference. While one part of you wants to have a loud and aggressive sounding exhaust, there is another part of you that knows you don't want to wake up the neighborhood or annoy your significant other. Finally the answer to your dilemma, thanks to Turner motorsports you no longer need to choose between rowdy and tame. With the new your new light-weight performance exhaust you have the option to go from tame and tasteful to loud and rowdy. The Turner Valved exhaust was designed specifically for your E46 and there are no other options on the market like this. Control the tone and volume of your exhaust with the click of a button. With the valves closed you have a nice low tone and hearty exhaust note. When the valves are open you get complete unrestricted access to sound and power for when you're at the track or just in the mood to let it rip. The full catback exhaust from Turner features dual 2" stainless steel mid-pipes that connect directly to your factory downpipes. Within the mid-pipes is an integrated x pipe for a smooth flowing center section with lower amounts of back pressure which leads to increased performance and a smoother exhaust tone. The 2" mid-pipes crossover and flow into a 3" exhaust section and full 3" valved muffler. The muffler features integrated 3" exhaust tips for an aggressive look that fills out your rear diffuser to get the perfect appearance. Valved exhausts of this caliber can be found on new performance models, super cars and overall cars way above the price ranges of a nice E46. Surprisingly enough some E46's did come with a type of vacuum actuated mufflers which opened and closed the exhaust under certain rpm ranges, unfortunately by now the factory valve is damaged or the muffler no longer actuates. Although the factory valved muffler on E46's were great in theory, there was very little change in tone and was limited by your driving style. Taking notes from the original engineering process from BMW, the engineers at Turner revitalized this cool technology and made it better. The final product is a light-weight performance exhaust that features superior valving a great aesthetics!

Corsa's TwinSilencer Exhaust will change the sound of the E46 325/330 from a mild mannered commuter car to a true sports car. Corsa has designed a E46 performance exhaust with a tuned aggressive sound that is worlds apart from the stock ho-hum exhaust. But thanks to their innovative RSC technology this exhaust stays civilized at normal speeds and RPM. This is a sport exhaust that you can live with on a daily basis but it opens up when you get on it. This Corsa kit is known as the "Light" version and includes the rear muffler only, after the rear axle. It has the same mufflers as the full cat-back TSE3 exhaust but replaces only the rear muffer. This gives you nearly all of the sweet Corsa sound but a more accessible price point. Tips are available as polished or black and laser engraved with the Corsa logo. The black tips have an innovative coating that won't chip or flake and provides outstanding corrosion resistance.

Although known as the Twin Silencer Exhaust (TSE3) this system almost has dual personalities. When driven aggressively it produces a throaty and charismatic exhaust note. It has plenty of burbles and pops that a performance exhaust should have and compliments other performance upgrades you may have on your car. But when driven lightly there's only a slight hint of sporty sound. It becomes a subdued version of its other self and completely livable on daily and highway trips with NO DRONE! You can use it on a daily driver without it being annoying or intrusive and then let it off its leash for the weekend fun runs.

Reflective Sound-Cancellation (RSC) technology - This feature is a patented non-electrical noise control system, where engine sound (pressure) waves are reflected in passages inside the muffler 180 degrees out of phase to cancel out unwanted sound waves. The result is a tuned muffler that "cleans up" the noise without eliminating the pure sound of power associated with a high-performance vehicle. Using the Corsa technology, the stainless steel mufflers are tuned to eliminate passenger cabin resonance and produce just the "right" sound. The result is quieter cruising with an awe-inspiring roar at full throttle. This system is amazingly quiet during normal cruising, due to the "no drone" RSC technology, yet still has an aggressive presence and full sound while under throttle. This makes for ideal sound for those that want an aggressive "roar" while driving hard, yet still want a more discrete lower volume for normal cruising.

This is an axle-back system, which replaces only the rear mufflers of the stock 325/330 exhaust. It's very easy and straightforward to install and the rest of the exhaust can remain on the car (the original muffler is cut from the exhaust). Detailed photographic instructions are included. This system is 100% Made in the USA and carries a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. This exhaust is emissions legal in all 50 states (no effect whatsoever on emissions, and no "Check Engine" warning lights).
