E9X M3 X-Pipes

After trying various different combinations of X-pipes, we have come up with a formula that works for us. We have tried many different diameter pipes, with different combinations & locations for the silencer boxes and the crossover point. And this one seems to give the optimum combination of power & meaty, midrange "rumble" for the sound.

We have 2 options, the cheaper 409 stainless steel with normal bends which goes for R 2500. And the more expensive 304 stainless with mandrel bends, which we are still finalising the price on. They make similar power, around 4-6kw on the wheels up here at altitude. A bit more at sea-level.

Those look delicious!!

I must commend Xcede on the amount of R&D that goes into building these. They dont just go and make an exhaust, they develop them and better them.

Keep it up guys!

Better flow, less weight, and a lower better sound. Both X and S pipe have resonators, taking them out increases flow and sound volume

Iam no expert, but i think it helps the car to make more power in the upper rev range:fencelook:

Are you kidding me.... R2500 for E92 X pipes ( Jerez falls back in his seat)
The closest I would come to stainless completely freeflow is R12500 (304), and that's without the stage 2 "ECL" remap.

Jolly good work here chaps and great price too


You guys are lucky in the sense that the Ozone layer is thicker in S Africa than it is in the Northern hemisphere.
You can go totally catless here but will fail the annual COR.youd need to swap to stock for the test .
Or you can go with primaries out, 200 cell cats and resonators and pass emission and decibel checks.
