Overview
The ARM F8X S55 Catted Downpipes are the ultimate solution for improving power, throttle response, and exhaust note on your S55 powered F8X. Our goal for the ARM F8X Catted Downpipes was to provide a solution that would maximize power and torque, fit perfectly, and sound extraordinary. The ARM S55 Catted downpipes incorporate two 200 cell catalysts to reduce emissions and exhaust odor while providing superior exhaust flow for your F8X!
Downpipes are considered a standard upgrade for any F8X owner looking to safely push their S55 engine beyond basic Stage 1 tuning. With Stage 2 and up tuning, higher boost increases back-pressure at the OEM catalysts and chokes the S55's turbochargers, causing them to work harder and shortening their life.
The ARM F8X Catted Downpipes relieve the stressful back-pressure caused by high-boost tunes, allowing the exhaust to flow freely, increasing power and torque, all while extending the longevity of your S55's turbochargers. On our test car, after installing our F80 downpipes and switching to a Stage 2 flash we made 543whp and 547wtq, this is 73whp and 126wtq gain over the stock results!
Even with the ARM F8X Catted Downpipes installed on your stock-tune S55, you will notice an increase in power, torque and responsiveness. Not to mention the incredible, head-turning sounds your M3 will make under part and full throttle.
