Overview

The VRSF race downpipe replaces the factory downpipe on F-chassis BMWs with the 2.0-liter turbo four, in both N20 form and the SULEV-rated N26 version. It fits the F30 320i and 328i, the 428i coupe, convertible and Gran Coupe, and the F22 228i. Choose the N20 or N26 version to match your engine.

What It Does

The factory downpipe holds a restrictive catalytic converter directly after the turbo. Removing it reduces back pressure, so the small turbo spools sooner and the engine pulls harder through the midrange. VRSF measures 20 to 25 hp with a tune, and the exhaust note becomes deeper and more aggressive.

Materials and Construction

The downpipe is a 4.5-inch design, hand crafted and TIG welded from 304 stainless steel with smooth radius bends. The flanges are CNC machined from 304 stainless steel for a tight seal at the turbo and the mid pipe. It is finished in brushed stainless.

Fitment Notes

Please confirm your mid-pipe flange before ordering. VRSF lists that check for every model.
The N26 is the SULEV version of the N20 used in some 328i and 428i models. Check your engine code if you are unsure.
B46/B48 cars (230i, 330i, 430i) need the VRSF B46/B48 downpipe instead.
Race downpipes remove the catalytic converters and are sold for off-road and competition use only. A tune is needed to run them without fault codes.
