Well the noise from my rusty muffler on my '88 E30 is driving me crazy.
Where's the most reasonable place you guys go for a replacement muffler in Vancouver?

If your car is a "E" it probably has a single pipe. If that's the case you can get it done just about anywhere (CHEAP). But most Muffler guys easily can deal with twin pipes.

Okay, I went out and got a muffler but after a few days the muffler would vibrate whenever I step on the throttle. Took it back and was told that it touched a part of the body. Now that its been fixed I've noticed some vibration noise while at idle. Any ideas what can be done about this? New rubber mounts needed?

Try swinging it around a bit with it cold of course. Just grab the tailpipe and see if you can make it do the noise. That should narrow it down
