Installed VRSF Catless Downpipe on F25 X3 xdrive35i
Hey guys,
Got the catless downpipe from VRSF installed on my F25 X3 xdrive35i (2016). Thought I'd share the before and after sound for anyone considering a purchase. Both videos (before catless and after) have the golf tee mod. EDIT 1: Some questions about install that I missed. To be brief, much easier with a lift. I disconnected sensors from bay and then lifted and removed the entire exhaust. Then installed the new DP, then reconnected exhaust to newly installed DP. You may think it would be extra work, but it makes the install much easier IMO. The DP area is tight and is much easier to install without exhaust. EDIT 2: Stage 2 MHD is on. No error codes. I will upload new video soon. Before: After: After (Cold start): [URL="https://youtu.be/ANFzWqec7KA”] After: . Last edited by N55WADE; 06-18-2021 at 03:37 PM.. |

Install for the DP wasn’t too bad and I’m happy with it. |

What were the challenges for the install? I may consider doing this down the road.

I would imagine the X3 is a bit of a mixed bad because while it's xDrive, there's slightly more space in the engine bay compared to a 335i. |

it can be done but a lift makes it so much easier
