N55 e70 downpipe options

[Tritan84]

Trying to search for companies that make downpipes for the n55, but finding mostly info for the X5M. What companies out there make one for the N55?

Is a downpipe worth it in the N55 X5?

If I'm not mistaken, F10 N55 downpipes will fit the E70 N55. They are worth the install if you do not need to do emissions testing. Also, you'll need to run a tune to get rid of the CEL.

Was planning to run burger stage 1. Know if that will delete the cel for emissions?

I believe it will but you'll need the additional cable. best to contact them and confirm. if you have a 2011, I would suggest getting Cobb tune. it will take care of the CEL and you can also adjust the maps to get more power than the jb3

Anyone install a downpipe on an N55? Any diy available? Can't find one

I couldn't find anything either. From the 3 series folks, it takes 2-3 hours and very helpful if you have a lift. I may try to find a exhaust shop to do it. I saw someone say the shop did it for $100-$150.

Yes although I do have a Cobb accessport which will take care of the CEL but I think the dealer upgraded me to a newer ROM so I'll have to wait for COBB to come out with new maps before I can use that...
