The Active Autowerke B46 downpipe for the 230i, 330i and 430 helps unleash some of the potential that is restricted by the OEM downpipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e the cutoff build date of 08\/2020 is important as cars produced after that date have a downpipe with different bracket locations. Cars with build date of 08\/2020 and earlier have the brackets in a V configuration and should order the F-series downpipe while cars with a build date of 09\/2020 and later have the brackets in a straight line. If your car was built in the cutover months 08\/2020 and 09\/2020, please include your VIN in the order so we can ensure you get the correct downpipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurbochargers are powered by spent exhaust gases created during the combustion process. The quicker these gases are evacuated, the better. Unfortunately, the factory down pipe in the B46 is quite restrictive, which results in slower exhaust gases and slower turbo spool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Active Autowerke F-Chassis B46 Signature down pipe utilizes 3-1\/2 inch diameter stainless steel piping in order to provide more power, quicker spool, and extreme durability. We've incorporated a stainless flex joint and then to the ball flare to meet the OEM exhaust system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis variant includes a 4\" high flow Active A-Flow catalytic converter that will NOT produce a CEL for cat efficiency!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Active A-Flow Catalytic Converter features full 304 stainless steel construction, including the substrate. Active A-Flow Catalytic Converters are EPA registered and compliant in 49 states and fully OBD2 compliant, perfect for use on 1996 and newer vehicles. The 4 inch cat uses the same construction and formula as our EPA registered A-Flow cats.  Active proprietary precious metal loading technology ensures greatly reduced emissions, eliminating most \"Check Engine Lights\" for cat efficiency. These high flow catalytic converters outperform stock converters and provide a reliable solution to the most common catalytic converter problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Active A-Flow Catalytic Converters are rated for engines putting out up to 500 horsepower while maintaining a high flow capacity. The reduced back-pressure from this high flow catalytic converter will allow you to maximize your engines horsepower without the harmful emissions.
