Product details
OVERVIEW
Evolution Racewerks' Sports Series Metallic High Flow Catted Downpipe is designed for the B58 six-cylinder turbo engine, covering 2024-and-older F- and G-chassis cars: the M240i, 340i, 440i, M340i, M440i, 540i, 740i and 840i, the X3 M40i and X4 M40i, the X5, X6 and X7 xDrive40i, and the Z4 M40i. It replaces the restrictive factory downpipe with a 200 cell metallic catalytic converter and mandrel bent 4.5" to 4" piping that transitions smoothly into the rest of the exhaust.
The result is a higher maximum horsepower curve and a torque curve that hits faster, climbs higher and holds longer, with better throttle response and quicker turbo spool. The downpipe is built entirely from stainless steel, 100% TIG welded, and made in the USA, with a precision CNC machined turbocharger V-band flange. It works with the factory exhaust system or an aftermarket one.
Ceramic thermal coating is offered as an option. Its purpose is to keep heat from the exhaust gases inside the downpipe rather than radiating out, which lowers underhood temperatures and reduces heat absorption by nearby parts. Retaining that energy also keeps exhaust flow velocities up, lowering backpressure, and the coating adds corrosion resistance. ER's thermal coating resists up to 2000°F and is available in black only, because no other color survives that temperature.
