My first phase of modding! R2C intakes + muffler delete! (video inside)

This weekend, I have successfully installed the R2C dual intakes and deleted muffler. I replaced the muffler with custom megnaflow pipes+stock tips.

The result was amazing. The sound is not too loud and no drone. It kinda reminds of my old 04 g35 coupe but louder and deeper. It sounds even better when it gets high rpm because of the dual intakes. Its amazing.

So far I love it. No regrets!

Here is the video of my car

During the day: Warm start w/ rev

Driving- downshift and such

During the night: Cold start w/ rev

How much did you pay for the shop to delete your rear mufflers and did they reuse the exhaust hangers? Pics of the work under the car would be nice

And I think you meant magnaflow?

It sounds pretty good, not too loud. It's enough to get that performance feel.

Indeed! It only loud at high RPM when the intakes kick in with it. I see now why people say muffler delete will get you lower mpg.. cuz you floor it everytime you drive it! sounds so good !

When you say custom magnaflow, what do you mean by custom. Also, do you have the link to the specific one you bought or is it that custom. That's all. great video / mods. I have a graphite too

Is it a 2.5" too?

I think GS is the best color

Anyways, i believe its 2.25" .. Not 100% sure. Muffler shop had magnaflow pipes in stock and they told me they customized to reduce the noise/drone.

I love GS / White all day. But alright. Thanks. If you ever find out for sure, please let me know as I'm going to do a muffle delete soon. Thanks! Loving the V36 tho

I think my muffler delete was my favorite and cheapest mod I've done. The muffler shop by my house charged me $90.00. I left the cats and oem tips on. Here's my video. I had the oem rims on at the time.

Here's a video at the muffler shop.

I am gonna be doing this to mine here soon also. Hopefully within the next week or two. Was hoping to find someone on here trying to get rid of their custom pipes so I could just pop em on instead of having a shop do it but no luck lol the guy priced me out at $160 for custom pipes, welding, and new hangers
