OVERVIEW
Dinan engineered the 330i/430i axle-back exhaust to improve flow by reducing back pressure, which increases power output and delivers a sporty tone that stays civilized when you want it to be and turns pleasantly aggressive under hard acceleration. Like every Dinan exhaust, it is designed to limit low-RPM drone so the cabin stays intimate rather than being drowned in an excessively loud tone.
The system is built for a straightforward bolt-on installation using the supplied mounting hardware and the factory brackets and hangers. It is made from 100% 16-gauge 304 stainless steel for long-term corrosion resistance and finished with twin 76mm (3 in.) laser engraved tips in polished stainless or black ceramic coating. Dinan records a maximum gain of 4 horsepower and 3 lb-ft of torque. The factory computer-controlled exhaust valve is eliminated with this system.
