OVERVIEW
For over 30 years Active Autowerke has been the name to turn to for high quality BMW performance products, and these S63TU downpipes are the newest addition to their F10 M5 and F12 M6 collection — engineered to virtually eliminate the immensely restrictive characteristics of the factory M5 and M6 downpipes, reducing radiant heat while, Active Autowerke states, significantly increasing horsepower and torque throughout the powerband and reducing turbo lag. Each set is manufactured in house from 304 stainless steel, meticulously TIG welded and checked for fitment, and still accepts the OEM O2 sensor heat shield, so with the heat shield installed the engine bay keeps its stock, sleeper look.
