M2 Downpipe - Catted?
Hello,
I’m purchasing a downpipe for 2017 M2. I was looking at the Fabspeed and Akrapovic. Not sure which one to go with? Any drawbacks for either option. They cost about the same. Any other option I should consider? |

Both are quality options, but I think you'll find that the fabspeed tends to be more popular on this forum. I've been running my Fabspeed for almost 10K miles at this point and love it in conjunction with my full Dinan exhaust.

I love my Fabspeed. I think it was the first company to guarantee no CEL, and it got its good rep from that. There are at least 3 companies now that make catted DP's with no CEL, and I'm not sure you can say one is better than the other.
@mike@x-ph.com would know |

I've been running the Active Autowerke catted DP for over a year with no issues. Might be a slightly cheaper option

keep in mind that running a tune allows you to turn off the CEL anyhow.

Milltek 300 cel here. Cheaper than akra, same HJS Euro 6 core that will pass emissions testing. Flow near as damnit same as 200 cel or decat, but sounds better IMO than decat rasp.

Not much difference between the 2 in terms of quality, fitment performance, and sound. They both do not throw a check engine light either

I went with the Fabspeed CAT and the FTP charge pipe. Thanks for the help.
I bought all this through @mike@x-ph.com Extreme Power House. He gave me a great price! |
