Looks great. Needs to be lowered a bit though. What wrap did you guys use on the DPs?

The X6M's and the X5M's look awesome lowered. This one could definitely use some lowering springs or coil overs.
I'm not sure on the brand but I know we use a titanium wrap so that it can hold up to the extreme heat and not flake off like traditional header wrap. The wrap isn't just for looks or reduce the heat under the hood it also helps reduce damage to the rear cylinders. We see that the aftermarket downpipes get too hot at times. This excessive heat can affect the rear cylinders creating issues. The stock downpipes are double walled which reduce heat transfer from the factory. |

I believe these were VRSF downpipes.
We haven't had an issue with our tunes and downpipes. We've tuned quite a few S63 powered vehicles with downpipes and so far everyone has been thoroughly pleased with the end results. |

Heard this was common with catless and time. Running hfc dp and bm3 tune. Haven’t stalled once
My m4 with stock Downpipe’s runs into the stall issue sometimes. Kind of weird |
