I've tried looking at pictures, but its hard to tell, haven't seen a good X-drive downpipes installed photo. I feel like the standard downpipes are less restrictive even though both have to neck-down to 2.5", the x-drive variant just having to do it sooner...
You should have a good shop fab a set of dp's that will fit perfectly. If you get dp's for eithier a 335i or 335xi, you will still need to do some fabbing anyway...
