I believe the Matt Schnell DP's are the lowest price now. They're really great quality it seems too.

How much harder is it to install the 3 in vs the 2.5? Will you really see that much more gains with a stock rest of the exhaust?

2.5" DP's I believe you see somewhere between 15-20hp and with 3" you get another 7 hp on top. Stock exhaust otherwise.

I was wondering if yoU had any codes thrown with the dps? If so what did you use to fix the issue? I have a 07 E92 I am thinking of adding these too.

Not sure if the installation is anymore difficult.. the stock exhaust is actually pretty good once you remove the restrictive and heavy stock catted dp's so the turbo's can breathe, 3" are good for 30hp

have the raceland downpipes for about 3-4 months now and they are alright. i even like how they look gold'ish now. no problems with flange rust and such. but for sure i'd prefer 30$ more for better mfr quality.

They actually stopped selling the discounted sets as the quality was very bad and are waiting on a new batch coming in about 30 days.

I got the discounted set and they were so crappy inside, looked like a 5 year old welded it.

Not worried about, just returning it for a 100% refund. Raceland customer service is top notch!

Correct on all counts. Have to agree about their service. Product might be cheap but their service is great. Hope to get a revised set.

I inquired about when the new batch will be available and here was their response (took less than a day and a half for a response):

The new stock of 335i Downpipes are expected within 30 days, though we will have a better estimate in beginning of October.

Sincerely,
Raceland USA
