dick, bav auto catalogue has two stainless steel mufflers. the "scorpion", which says ""Not approved for EPA street use"" is priced between 449 and 899.

the triflow, which i would assume is louder than stock (performance tho ) says $534-$999 . im sure if you could get a specific brand, you could see if bma could get it for you at a reduced price.

The muffler repair person runs a long-time, one man muffler only repair shop. He would be able to tell if the muffler is stainless or not. He is the one that suggested I find another stainless one, and not buy the one in his catalog.

I have another 1991 525i and when I noticed some corrosion around the outside of the muffler on that car last year, I took it to this shop (as he is a personal friend). He pulled at some of the corroded metal and said that the only thing with any rust was the outside skin and that the muffler was stainless and perfectly fine.

Thanks for the reply, but I really want to find a source for a stainless muffler. Or, at least, find out how much one might be so that I can make a decision.
