Downpipe for 1M???
Guys,
I've the eisenmann exhaust on my 1M and this week I'll install the midpipe... I wish to buy and install the downpipe too...but some people told me if I do that, I'll have problems with a sensor and a light will be on my dashboard, and I could have some problems (it's seems that the 335 and the 135 had these problems...) So I want to ask, is this real?Can I buy and install a downpipe on the 1M without have any problems? If there is no problem, what brand do you propose for downpipe? Thanks... |

Also go to burgertuning.com You can get a dp fix to turn off that light if you do not have a tune that does it already. |

Different high flow catted pipe, but the result is still the same. They cost more and they have a high failure rate which will degrade in about a year or two. Return them while you can and save money by buying a set of catless downpipes. You can suppress the CEL by having an aftermarket tune on it. My Cobb Stage 2+ map suppresses this CEL even though I have a set of catless downpipes on my 135i or use the BMS downpipe fix. |

I have Akra Slip-on, Akra wireless valve, N55 midpipes and JB4.
Ordered PLM 3" catless downpipes yesterday for 395$(!) and will post a complete review of installation, fitment and sound with both pictures and videos.

Meisterschaft now has a line of 3" down pipes for the N54. I think I might give these a go and change over to resonated mids.

I rock the VRSF 3" Catless on mine and love them. You will get a SES light no matter what brand aftermarket catted or catless downpipes.

You sure on the cel? Read the bottom line says no cel? Just wondering if we need to let them know that is um well false... |

What about those of us whose states require inspections? I want to do a dp, but I don't want to have to swap it out when I go in for an inspection every year...
Considering N55 mids too... so I think I would be fully catless?? I feel like that may be a recipe for disaster. |
