I like this thread since I am pondering which would be a good buy. Do any of these DPs come with their own new hardware to mount or do you have to use the existing bolts?
Hopefully my bolts are possible to take on and off for emissions.

Lol E90company....I knew you'd get pooped on for that comment
In any case, absolutely nothing wrong with VRSF. 1st to the market with a reasonably priced DP option. I give them mad props for that. It's just piping after all. If this new Cast option can stay within a reasonable range $400-$500 then I'm sure they kill the market. BMS are another great option and fairly priced, but still SS like the old VRSF's. |

Says the JB4 fanboy... Do you have to make this statement in every DP thread?
Agree. At least 5-10 N54'ers local to me have the VRSF DP's and are all satisfied with them.

BMS pipes are superb, VRSF is a good option as well. Tiago and Terry are as good as it gets in terms of support, they both stand behind their products 100%. If going VRSF i'd wait until their revised design comes out, it looks very solid.

BMS DPs have been great for me. Superb cost for that quality and fitment. And Terry support is amazing.

Out of all the overseas downpipes the BMS ones are probably the best. I got a large order in recently and they have been selling very well and the quality is definitely very good. No fitment issues either and come with gaskets and hardware. Great alternative to ar design pipes if you are on a budget. Mike |

Ok? Says the VRSF warrior? Little would you know I have tried all three major tunes? Those rusty pipes in your review thread look great. Keep talking.

So ill ask again, why do you knock them in every dp thread that comes up?? Sure its your opinion but my question is what brings you to that opinion. That would be a ton more valuable to anyone interested in purchasing dp's rather than your ignorant comments.

My suggestion would be to purchase whatever dp's you feel are the best bang for the buck. Use the search function on the forums to read reviews on each company. Id personally stay away from ebay brands and i would purchase from a forum vendor like BMS or VRSF. You can't go wrong with either company in regards to quality, value, and customer service.

No dog in this fight, have no DP's & will not be buying DP's because of State Inspection issues.
I would be concerned by stainless steel that rusts. I have a 98 truck with stainless steel pipes & after 14 years they are still not rusted. If they not stainless steel I would pass them by & pay a bit more to get SS.

You cant go wrong with either option... I was torn between the two and only went with BMS because i got a sweet deal on them when purchasing JB4 and AFE DCI... For what its worth... I'm Happy!!

if you are in the market, I have some used BMS downpipes for sale. They are great quality, and you do notice the difference with them on the car.
