I called AR again, lol they told me they now "fired" another builder, do these guys have a lame board of shit to say... Hes like we are not manufacturing for 6 months now. Meanwhile last week, the other guy who works there in the same office said we'll have stock in 2 weeks? These guys driving me nuts.
Anyone parting there car and getting rid of there downpipes for a 535xi?

Getting downpipes is somewhat pointless unless you have an aftermarket exhaust with like atleast 3" tubing right? Maybe someone more knowledgeable can clarify, I've been wondering this.

Definitely accurate but a downpipe on a stock exhaust still gives nice gains. With exhaust and programming a CHIP you can probably get a 60HP gain. I think catless downpipe programmed on a flash map can give 25-35HP? Exhaust cuts all those CATS out. (Someone can interject if I am inaccurate)

I called modbargains an was able to get the downpipes! Going to take 4 weeks so YA F'ing HOO. You guys convinced me with your happy aftermath after installation. lol downpipes are a solid upgrade. Stock exhaust just restricts some air flow with the DP
