Vishnu N55 Downpipe Review
Vishnu 3.5 inch N55 Downpipe
 This review is to help members gauge possible interest in a new product from Vishnu Tuning. This is going to be straight forward and right to the point (short and simple). The two companies I was debating on going with were AR’s 4 inch dp and icarbon’s 4 inch dp but chose The Vishnu 3.5 inch DP. We have learned from these forums that the restriction on the N55 is in the stock catalytic converter, removing this item will free up the flow for more horsepower/torque no matter what. I personally chose Vishnu because I could not Pass on the Deal offered, it’s a 3.5 inch DP, and the product didn’t look bad at all, oh and Shiv's dyno results sealed the deal. Anyways, we can add Vishnu to the N55 downpipe list with AR and icarbon as well now. Car 2011 135i DCT Transmission 44XX miles Mods - Procede V5 and Some Stickers Delivery 1. In Stock (When I Ordered), and it came faster then estimated 2. Robert@Vishnu - Great first impression, very informative Packaging 1. It’s a DP, so nothing crazy difficult 2. Wrapped in Bubble Wrapping for Insulation Install 1. Amateur Install in under 2 hours with proper tools 2. FITMENT was perfect – no issues ( Alignment is KEY, before Tightening anything) 3. Came with gaskets and bolts Necessary for the install 4. Instructions included Craftsmanship 1. Minimal WELDS 2. Full T 304 Stainless Steel 3. Everything looks consistent 4. Welds are SOLID 5. Brackets for DP Support are really really strong ( MY FOOT CAN TELL YOU THAT ) 6. Bends on DP are Mandrel Bent 7. No sign of grinding anywhere on DP 8. O2 bungs pretty much are in the factory location 9. FINALLY IT LOOKS REALLY DA#M GOOD. Price 1. Very Fair 2. The DP overall was a great price for the Craftsmanship, Availability and Functionality. Overall Thoughts - Exhaust TONE is really deep and throaty now - Turbo Spool is very noticeable. Old grandmas in their 5.0 mustangs watch out - Seat to Pants <<< (H@LY SH1T) - Robert@ Vishnu, easy and awesome customer service - Low End Torque Improved and, Top End is night and day difference      Last edited by htt760; 02-23-2011 at 12:37 PM.. |

I like the way they connected the mid-pipe flanges. A smart move to keep it rigid imo.
