N26 Downpipe options

Hello all. I recently purchased a 328xi GT with the n26 motor. I was fortunate to come across a JB4 and installed that much earlier today. With the snow and the 19" wheels traction is very low so I didn't get a chance to push it. I want to extract as much power as possible and am looking for a cheap downpipe option.

I have found the following on which display the correct lower v band:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Performance-...ZYWU2j&vxp=mtr

https://www.amazon.com/Rev9Power-DP-...w+n20+downpipe

The issue becomes they all state that they are not for the n26 but all look like the they would fit without issue.

My question here is has anyone had any success with an installation of any of these downpipes? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I think you'll find more relevant information and expertise in this sub-forum
where there's more info on modding the N20 and N26 engines:

Sadly the F34 GT modding community isn't that large but luckily they share
the same engines across the whole 3 series/4 series range

Best of luck to you!

I ended up going with Circuit Works with an OEM clamp. It was a pretty easy install.

I installed the downpipe along with the charge pipe, and intake all at the same time. Over all the car sounds good. I like that I can now hear the back fire when revving the car out. I also changed my exhaust to stock 335 section and that made the biggest difference in regards to sound.
