Great job man! Wow, that’s amazing you can get it from the top... the n55 is no room for that at all! Thanks so much for the shoutouts 👍🏼👍🏼

@projectf3075 6 лет назад

Yeah, there was more room than I thought! I was reaching down just to see how deep the V-band clamp was and it was closer than I thought. Thanks so much for your help!

Hi do you think vrsf will fit 2013 bmw 320i xdrive n20 engine. I am getting mixed reviews and hard to find a downpipe for my car with decent price. thanks

Wow, sounds extremely nice. I have a stock F32 N20 that I'm now considering this mod for. Thanks!

@UnixGoldBoy 5 лет назад

Thanks for the info! I ordered a VRSF downpipe for my F30, but the installer is telling me it will be 4 more weeks for VRSF to ship out the downpipe with the high temp coating. Can't wait to get it installed!

Hey ProjictF30 I just installed a Active Autowerke FMIC ,catback exhaust, and a ER catted down pipe and charge pipe with bootmod3 stage 2 on my 2016 F30 328i, and I used your video again for my install because I think it is the best diy for downpipe on a F30 328i, thanks again.

great video, I have the ER catted downpipe for my N20 528i to install soon and was looking for videos for some time, thank you, and I am fortunate to have a lift in my home garage, it paid back for itself after a couple jobs.

@projectf3075 6 лет назад

Neil Rampersad , cheers man! I'm glad that you found this! Let me know how it goes! The install was not so hard. It was just very time consuming. Stay patient and ensure that all your connections are secure and tight. Definitely want to avoid exhaust leaks. Good luck and thanks for watching!

I have a Daily 2014 M-Sport and the downpipe did absolutely nothing for the car. It seems like it took away bottom end Power vs the back pressure of the cat

@bimmer.sh0ts 3 года назад

Great video man! Very educational as I am going to attempt doing this and recording it myself. and also, is it possible to do this install without having to buy any clamps or seals? (assuming my downpipe comes with the necessary stuff)

@f22bmw 2 года назад

Hopefully you at least bought a seal.

@F80__Los 3 года назад

Got the same one as you! About to put it in. Does it decrease the mpg horribly?

Hey, I just got bm3 stage 1 in my n20 engine but I don't hear burbles specially when I'm revving while drive. So I'm thinking of getting catless downpipe and have ordered one. Do you think this will make the sound louder?

@martydastooge 3 года назад

unplug the connector at the flap while it's open, this will keep it always open. Or there's an option in Bootmod3 tune. I did the first option (When I still had my muffler)

@calessassracer 5 лет назад

Have you found the sizes yet?

@Kingnabor 5 лет назад

Nope

@AdVan82 5 лет назад

I found those v-clamps/gasket on bmwpartspros.com. Search under OEM parts for your specific model, and look around the exhaust sub menu. Should have an exploded diagram for the OE dp that has both the gasket, and v-band clamp. In addition you need the 2nd v-band clamp that goes between the dp, and the mid pipe. My '16 228i n26 was #'s 2,3,6. 18307581970, 18307606136, 18308632361. $80 total. Hope that helps.

@Zmack23 4 года назад

@Theeuroguy24 6 лет назад

Did you buy a down pipe for the n26 or n20? Curious of the difference. I have a n26 as well. Getting ready to to order one.

@projectf3075 6 лет назад

Josh Heineman I bought for my motor, N26. There is a difference so make sure you pick up the right one. ER and VRSF both make great catless DPs for N26. I heard Wagner has one too. Stay away from Circuit Werks.

@projectf3075 6 лет назад

Let me know before you order. If you go ER, I'll recommend you a guy. If you go VRSF, I'll recommend you a different guy.

well I don't know what you mean by stock tune. I run a stage 2 bm3 tune and you can clear codes.

@lemontreeg 4 года назад

This code or CEL will not show if you get it tuned by BM3 or if you use the high-flow down pipe and FMIC upgrade tune.
