Default dtm mufflers

does anyone run with dtm mufflers. BMWs have a lot of them and i was wondering how they sound on a civic. I dont want anything too lowd, i want a nice toan. and yes im on a budget. does anyone have sound clips of either dtms or universal mufflers..etc.

thanks so much

I think Tanabe used to make a DTM cat back exhaust. Most DTM's I see are universal mufflers and are loud and not so good sounding .

I used to have one on my D16y8 . At first I liked it cuz it was a deep tone . But its loud as hell and drones inside the cabin at highway speeds . You will definitly have to turn your stereo up in order to cover up the droning . I recommend looking for something more subtle but has the performance as well . your ears will thank you .

Alright thanks for the replies. Are there any universal mufflers that sound good? I mean I've never heard anyone talk about them in a good way..

ES oval muffler from what I have heard , Low profile doesn't draw alot of attention to your car and gives it an almost stock appearence , has a little more growl then stock but not overly loud and has the added performance .

Seems like the ES oval is the way to go, Please does anyone have pictures or sounds. Sounds would be awesome but a picture would be fine Thanks

i have one with striaght piping, under normal driving i have to put the silencer on because its too loud for my taste but its not that loud at all.... it has a nice rumble..... its good if you want a quiet(w/silencer)muffler or unbolt the silencer and race with it. it gets good flow

You use just the muffler? No cat back? and what do you mean by straight piping do they offer different piping?
