Awesome, you guys are fast. Estimated and measures power gain? Perhaps from the pipes only?

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

These are the first downpipes out for the car and are hand made in the USA, price seems justified to me.

We finished our first set this Thursday and have not had a chance to put it on our dyno yet for power gains. We created our jig from the first set and will provide more information and videos next week as today was 4th of July.
Please keep in mind these are two pipes (compared to the N55 which is a single turbo/pipe) and require a lot more material and time to build. |

yea, but this isn't an m5/m6
These shouldn't cost any more than n54 downpipes.

All comes down to the fact these are the first downpipes available. Once there are other vendors making them, the price will drop significantly.

Which has absolutely no bearing on the functionality nor quality. Quality depends on good records, good design, tracability, skill of welder, materials, etc. Both can be equally great or equally shitty in any country.

2. No, we will not do catted DPs. 3. It is our shop's old school Mini. Our down pipes are constructed from only US 304 Stainless Steel (not Chinese Steel) and our welder has a proven track record for building beautiful exhaust systems for many high horsepower vehicles. |
