Cape Town Downpipe Recommendation

Anyone have a recommendation for a shop to make up a full Downpipe for me? Without using my existing flange.

Let me know thanks!

What Car?

I just did my F30 330D and it is just about impossible to find a flange in CPT.

All the guys in JHB need the car, no ready made DP's that I could find.

Roadmaster Exhuasts in Durban, he made mine for a F30 330d, and made up the flange himself

X5 40d

Don't want the original Downpipe getting butchered.

Spoke to Brandon at profit. Not sure how accurate this is. But he says the Downpipe on this car is massive and it has like a 89mm exhaust from the turbo. Says subframes need to get dropped to remove it. I doubt this is the case though.

Give the recommended guys a call in Durban or Jhb, give them the car specs and have them make one up for you. TMSS, XFlow, Rogue performance and the likes are bound to have done the X5 40d before and have some idea or a guinnea pig car around that they can use to make up your one and courier it down to you for fitment?

Plenty of us around those areas to also make sure all is order while it gets made so you don't get taken for a ride or inferior quality.

Shot bud have spoken to MCC (think this is the name, forum sponsor) and they're going to do the job for me.
