540i Midpipe Help?
Gentlesirs, I am putting together my new exhaust system and it's getting close but I've hit a small block and would appreciate any advice.
I have a Supersprint axel back (#526354) and the Supersprint front pipe (#526312) to delete the factory resonator in that section. However I'm having trouble finding a midpipe section to connect these two Supersprint components. Photo below will hopefully help illustrate: |

Just get a custom piece welded in? Why over pay for the same thing from a company

Thanks for the reality check. A local BMW/Porche specialist shop is doing the install in the spring. I suppose I should email them that photo and just ask if they have some stainless pipe they could fit for the rest of the run?

That’s what I would personally do. They can just clamp a new pipe there compared to spending alotttttt on a brand name, once it’s done post some videos tho would love to hear it!!

Will do, I'll report back on it later. And yes to some videos for the sound... she'll have new airflow from front to back - intake, turbo inlet, chargepipe, downpipe, cat back.... Lips to tips! I can't wait to hear it.

Nice!! Have you been buying it all little by little and them doing the installs all at once?

Yeah, the goal is to have this shop do as much as possible at my spring appointment (wheels, tires, suspension, brakes, exhaust) so parts have been accumulating in my garage. It will be a massive transformation. But then I'll have the major stuff done straight away and can take my time from there with tweaks and smaller things.
