Production has officially begun and we're offering a discounted rate on the website for the first few sets that are pre-ordered. We're expecting these to arrive mid-late July.
We're offering this downpipe in both catless and catted configuration. The catted option features a 200 cell high flow cat. The catless pipe is available in a brushed finish as well as a Cerakote High Temperature Ceramic Coated finish for those looking to reduce intake, engine oil and transmission oil temps. Here's a short video of the exhaust note with the catless option! Last edited by Tiago@VRSF; 05-26-2018 at 04:26 AM.. |

Incase anyone is on the fence on a DP, I’m happy with it. No fitment issues. VRSF & Tiago 👍🏼👌🏼
If anyone is interested I took a few pics as I may make a DIY 😃 Last edited by E90705; 05-26-2018 at 06:24 PM.. |

Update: small minor detail: cold starts there is a fine vibration in the steering wheel mid-way into the cold start, not bad at all. As i never experienced it before the DP. It lasts about mid-way thru the cold start. I noticed this when i first installed it and even went back in to check any leaks and made sure v-band bolt & exhaust clamp bolt were tighten down, all checked out good. Figured after over 30 days i'd confirm it.

Did you remove the secondary cats as well? I assume this car has them. My 335 had secondary cats, and as long as they were in place still, there was zero smell practically even when stopped. I could only smell it a bit on a cold start in the garage.

Was your 335 a N54? The only cat is the one in the DP, before the muffler there’s a resonator.

We have a 3.5" version on the way! We just need to get a hold of an OEM 4" version of this downpipe so we can help out the newer model guys. If you have one available, please let us know and we'll be more than happy to compensate you for the assistance!
