Active Autowerke Downpipes — S63 (F90 M5/M8, F95 X5M, F96 X6M)
Active Autowerke GESI-catted downpipes for the S63TU — F90 M5/M8, F95 X5 M, F96 X6 M. Opens the twin-turbo V8's gating restriction while keeping high-flow cats in the pipes.
Construction
Built in-house from 304 stainless, TIG-welded, with a factory-matched 3.5" V-band inlet tapering into a mandrel-bent body — and the lower section others sell separately as a mid-pipe is included. Routed to retain the OEM O2 heat shield, so the bay stays factory-clean. A pair of 4.5" GESI G-Sport Ultra High Output catalytic converters — EPA-registered, 49-state / OBD2, no CEL. Not California-legal.
Where it fits in the build
