I am interested in dp catless, between active 3 " and ar design 3 ". They said to me that really the ar design is equal to the CP-e, and ends in 2.5 ". Is it true?
There are differences between active and the ar design?

All of these bolt-on catless downpipes taper from 3" (at the turbine flange) to 2.5" at the secondary pipes.

The most significant differences among these pipes are construction.

CP-E downpipes use cast flanges that neck down to 2.5" at the first bend off the turbos. I like that for its durability over heat cycles from a daily-driven car.

The ar Design pipes are quality mandrel-bent, welded pipes that neck down to 2.5" at the secondary pipe flange. Seemingly hundreds have been sold without issue. Ceramic coating is optional.

These AA pipes appear to be constructed with quality that rivals ar. In addition, they include mounting brackets that help to suspend the front portion of the exhaust system and control lateral movement as the engine flexes under load. The price in this group buy is hard to ignore-- these AA pipes look to be an incredible value.

Thank you. Your you would prefer active or ar design?

[Imperator]

I'm fine with either. ar pipes are a bit more expensive but Andrew's customer service is fantastic and they're just about 100% guaranteed to fit.

The AA pipes are brand new so I can't say how they fit but the price on this group buy is incredible-- I keep coming back to this thread to see if it's still open as I'm strongly considering a set for myself!

I can't send you a PM for some reason so shoot me an email so we can discuss.

Thanks for your input

I bought the AA downpipe from mike, and the fitment is excellent.

UPDATE

We have sold out of the first batch so the Group Buy is CLOSED!

There is some good news

There will be a 4-6 week wait on the new batch, but for those willing to wait and pre-order we will honour the GB price of 544.00. Once the shipment arrives prices will go back up.

The way this will work is we will take a $100.00 deposit on the order and charge once its ready to ship. This way you lock in your price to take advantage of the massive savings and it helps us manage our inventory

I'm tempted. Couple questions.

Do we have a ceramic option?

What happens if we don't get 10?

[pHo_e92]

There is no ceramic option, and there is no minimum on this.

Will this trigger the CEL?

Is this also a 3" at one end and taper down to 2.5"? This will bolt us to any after market exhaust?

How much shipped to Canada (T3A4S8)?

Thanks

If you aren't running either a PROcede or JB4 then it will trigger a CEL, but you can get an o2 sim like the BMS o2 sims for 80.00.

As for shipping, they are shipping from the US or from Canada depending where you live. So for you shipping will be the same as the US guys. about 30.00 - 37.00 via FEDEX.

Will the O2 sims give a "ready" signal when it gets checked for state inspections?

[Imperator]

I think the BMW O2 simulator passes valid forward voltage readings back to the DME so the car will think the rear O2 sensors are functioning as expected and will pass readiness.

I wish they would make a PnP version that taps in-line with the rear sensors instead of the pinout harness at the DME. I don't want to pop open my cowl if I don't have to, especially while using a flash-based tune.
