Has anyone installed either the Bavauto's Tri-Flo or Active Autowerke's exhaust? Both are similar in materials, looks, performance, and price. My application is a '99 323i. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I have one of their exhausts, but it's on my M3. I am very impressed with it. Fit and Finish is perfect. I'm sure the AA unit is much quieter than the Triflow unit tho.

Wow, the Tri-Flo muffler wins the loudest category.
Too bad about Paul's car, though.
Now its a coin toss:
AA
B&B
Bavauto
I just heard a AA Gen III on an M3 and it sounds perfect - very little low-end resonance like my Triflo but a snarly, howling rasp under load that just sounds beautiful. I only paid $600 installed for my B&B at Bavauto so the price was right, but if I had to do it again I would seriously consider the AA.
The story behind that avus 323is is this: don't be nailing your girlfriend's best friend for three months behind her back, break up with her (especially when she has big brass balls), and then have her find out one night while drunk at a club.......bad! LOL
