Anyone got SHIFTECK downpipe for N55??

Hello!

I am about to make my order for my catless dp! But still choosing between VRSF or SHIFTECK.

There are many reviews for VRSF but nothing much for SHIFTECK, anyone?

I suspect that the Shifteck DP is the one that used to be Burger branded and is now N54 Tuning branded.

I run the shiftek got it for 200 shipped. The inner pipes at the merge could be welded a lot smoother otherwise good product and lifetime warranty

No fitment is great. Just the DP itself could be designed with better flow characteristics.

No it is not. We have no association with Shifteck.

Mike - thanks for clarifying. Mike had previously indicated that the N54 Tuning DP is made by the same factory that made the Burger DP (Burger DP has been discontinued).

Here is the other side. The weird hanging debris is no longer there. Just cleaned it out a bit.

Honestly, Joey911, I wouldn't worry to much about the lip difference in the VSRF or Shifteck. Their both off with some minor interference but will be negligible as mentioned before. My .02 is just install the vsrf and call it a day. If your really worried about it, get some AR ones or have a welder redo your vsrf.
