The S55 twin-turbo six pulls like an M3, but the factory exhaust makes it sound raspy and flat, and the stock muffler hangs low and sags under the rear bumper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dinan Free Flow Axle-Back Exhaust with X-Pipe for the BMW F87 M2 Competition fixes both. Redesigned internal baffling and larger 70 mm piping (up from 65 mm stock) give the S55 a deeper, throatier note, and an X-pipe in place of the factory resonator adds volume and smooths out the rasp. It is 100% T304 stainless steel and finishes in quad 4 in. (102 mm) double-walled, laser-engraved black ceramic tips. On Dinan's dyno it adds 6 HP and 5 lb-ft at 6,300 RPM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eM2 Competition Axle-Back Exhaust Sound, With the Valves Intact\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory computer-controlled exhaust valves stay in play. At low speed they limit noise, so cold starts and highway cruising stay civil. Under high load they open fully and let the S55 breathe.

It replaces the factory resonator, so the stock exhaust has to be cut at two points measured from the catalytic converters. Dinan quotes 2.5 hours of labor. If you are not set up to cut and clamp exhaust pipe, have a shop handle it. Because it does not affect emissions, Dinan lists it as legal for sale and use on emissions-controlled vehicles in all 50 states. Dinan part number D660-0082-BLK.
