Rogue Engineering
DMS Exhaust System
Like all Rogue Engineering products, the DMS
exhaust system is entirely designed and developed in the US in our
facility in Hohokus, NJ. By doing the development, fitting, evaluation
and testing here, you're assure a product that not only looks and sounds
great, but a product you can have installed with confidence.
In
testing, replacing only a muffler or even the complete exhaust system on
an E36 yields small measurable gains. Of course, these minute gains may
be depicted on a carefully constructed dyno chart. Rogue Engineering
looks at an exhaust with reality in mind, designing our exhaust to
deliver great looks and sound, with minimal issues of fit. Of course,
all of this at an affordable price would be a bonus. These are features
that the Rogue Engineering DMS deliver!
For real world exhaust performance gains,
this typically means replacing the largest restriction, the catalytic
converters, located in the factory exhaust manifolds. From there, free
flow aftermarket catalytic converters could be added downstream, after
the exhaust gas velocity had an opportunity to accelerate out of the
engine, allowing for the most LEGAL gas velocity allowable. This course
of action, however, is typically can exceed more than $3000 plus
installation.
Replacing the ENTIRE factory exhaust
system (resonators and rear muffler) with larger tubing WITHOUT
addressing the largest restriction is an exercise in futility. This
kind of exhaust "upgrade" will generally cost needless additional
installation charges, fit issues (can 6 clamps on an exhaust REALLY fit
like factory?), and ultimately, drain your wallet faster than a Bugatti
Veyron.
DMS Features
Just because
the DMS exhaust system is easy on the wallet does not mean you are
getting short changed.
- Full T-304 Stainless Steel
construction
Mandrel bent, dual 57mm tubing
(stock is dual 50mm) eliminates center resonator, allowing for
increased air flow yielding positive performance gains.
Mill-finished pipes and muffler,
mirror polished dual 3" staggered RACE tips fits most
aftermarket bumpers (Hamann, MTech, AC Schnitzer)
Entire exhaust utilizes TIG welded
construction
Maintains BMW factory warranty
Rogue Engineering logo tastefully
welded onto the top of the muffler
Can be clamped or welded (because
factory exhaust must be cut, professional installation recommended)
By using a more conventionally
shaped muffler, we are able to spend more time fine tune the exhaust
flow and sound being emitted from the exhaust. Unlike other companies
that offer "muffler-only" solutions for E46 applications, we have found
through our research and polling, that many of these systems are simply
too quiet, not allowing enough sound to be emitted.
Although we do not produce BMW intake
systems, we recognize the popularity and their use in conjunction with
an exhaust system.
