BRAND NEW UNIVERSAL FITTING 2.5" PIPING X-PIPE, SIZE IS 14.5"X7", fits most dual exhaust pipping, increase air flow, quiet down loudness, made by heavy duty T304 Stainless steel. Brand new instock, ready to ship, retail price is 125-150.00 ea.
And would the mandrel pipes be done by the muffler shop, or are these online too? The only ones I saw on ebay seemed to be made for intercooler applications.
Ebay has them, just search for exhaust mandrel bends, make sure to get 16 gauge, not 18 gauge, make sure the diameter rating is ID not OD (inner diameter not outer diameter), and make sure its ALUMINIZED steel, not raw mild steel. they are normally pretty cheap, around $10-15 a section. Just get two of the same kind.
So,
I have been lurking around here for a while. I scored my 2000 E55 from a dealer out in Arizona on Ebay and sweated for almost 2 weeks till it arrived. Worth waiting for!!!
I just got the x pipe and bends off Ebay and took them to Mandrel Bending Solutions here in Pasedena MD. They cut out the resonator and installed them in less than an hour. Even though I only had the car 2 days prior, I can definetely hear and feel the difference. Thanks for the great info and pics (took them to the shop with me) on the forum.
I have already discussed the pulley/header mod from AMS with Omey and will be doing that shortly - Omey, if you are reading you should see the order when I get paid Friday.
I have been driving an '87 300D Turbo for a long time and am having to re-learn right foot pressure lest I smoke these expensive rear tires in the first month of driving.......
