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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat It Does\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaterials and Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eN20 and N26 versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5in hand TIG-welded 304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC 304 stainless flanges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth radius bends for better flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20-25 hp with a tune (VRSF figures)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrushed finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVRSF N20 or N26 race downpipe\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRequired Parts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn engine tune is needed to run a catless downpipe without fault codes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 4in turbo-to-downpipe V-band clamp is an optional add-on above if yours is worn.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart numbers: 10302030 (N20), 10302035 (N26)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: VRSF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 304 stainless steel, TIG-welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: brushed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: catless race downpipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping dimensions: 20 x 7 x 6 in (51 x 18 x 15 cm) for the N20 version; 18 x 7 x 6 in (46 x 18 x 15 cm) for the N26 version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping weight: 7 lb (3.2 kg) for the N20 version; 6 lb (2.7 kg) for the N26 version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eVideo\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eF30 328i with the VRSF catless downpipe\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/urSq0qcKZQo\" title=\"F30 328i with the VRSF catless downpipe\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease confirm your mid-pipe flange before ordering.
