They make them for every model of the E70 no matter what submodel/engine you have. What model is yours?

Yes! I have the same engine but here is the catch - the 50i came with two styles of connections - slip fit or two bolt flange. You can not tell from the VIN so only way to know for sure is to look under your truck and see. You must do this before ordering.

You can see the connection which is tucked up somewhat out of view with a mirror or put you phone in camera mode with the front facing camera might show it too (or just jack up the truck and look under it)

If you have the slip fit connection (just one bolt that tightens a metal band around the exhaust connection, then I HIGHLY recommend the ARM Motorsports downpipes. They are listed for the F10 550i but flt the X5 50i flawlessly and are what I am running.

Recommend you wrap it withe DEI Titanium, it is amazing how much heat it blocks (dont get the cheap knock-offs and wear gloves and safety goggles with this stuff when you cut it) https://www.amazon.com/Design-Engine...ustomerReviews
