Bosal now claim on their site (last time I looked) that all their mufflers are Stainless steel. If that is the case with their e34 unit, get it. Otherwise I wouldn't worry too much and would stick with the aluminized ANSA... (do let us know if the Bosal is SS).Originally Posted by jiminEcricket

just sent bosal an e-mail asking about "if s.s. or aluminized" will let you know what they answer.
Cool, it would be good to know. The Bosal unit is big, black and has very nice ****.Originally Posted by jiminEcricket

got reply today . bosal says that thier replacement for the rear muffler/section of my exhaust is made of aluminized steel with a 2 year warranty against defects and corrosion
How much is it? Had mine done about a year ago now and it cost £130.
i have found it at several different sites for as low as 292.00 to around 350.00 i did a web search for "bmw replacement muffler" and looked around . this price does not include the coupling sleeves or install.
apparently the muffler for the 530 sounds really cool on the 525 (as per old post)
