Best way to re-install stock mufflers?
I just bought an Eisenmann axle back that is going on this weekend. However, one of the concerns I had was how I might go about taking it off and putting back on the stock mufflers if I ever decide that I don't like it, it's too loud, etc.
What is the best way to go about doing that? |

Easiest way would be to mark, take pix, cut where indicated to install. Reverse of this procedure, I would personally clean up the cut, spot weld, and stainless band clamp the two ends for an almost seamless clean seal.

I think you could also have a sleeve added to the oem rear section similar to what the Eisenmann has to allow clamping the stock rear back on.
I'm sure a muffler shop could make it work.

Great ideas here. Thanks a ton. Relieves a bunch of the concern about switching back over.
Now, that said, is there any reason to switch over when bringing in for service or is this something that dealers won't have a problem with? I can't imagine why they would since its behind the cats, but I'm just wondering if anyone has run into an issue at all. And thanks Nate, it looks terrific. Going on this weekend. And a big shout out to Nerwyll at Trinity for all of his help too!!!! |

No you will not have any problems taking it in to the dealer.

The picture looks exactly like the F10 M5 exhaust and the part number is an F10 M5 part so I think yes.

Who is installing it for you? I had mine done at Velos Designwerks and was very happy with their workmanship.

I have the complete system, but I am only fitting the rear mufflers to see how I get on, if its not loud enough I will get the centre pipe fitted. |
