Alpha Competition BMW G80 G81 M3 G82 G83 M4 Crossover Exhaust Pipe
319.99€
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Alpha Competition presents a meticulously engineered S58 crossover exhaust pipe designed to enhance the driving experience for discerning BMW G8X owners. This performance-oriented component targets a specific element within the S58 engine’s exhaust system, potentially contributing to improved power delivery and responsiveness.
The factory-equipped crossover exhaust pipe plays a critical role in channeling exhaust gases from both turbochargers towards the downpipes and ultimately the exhaust system. While the stock unit functions adequately, Alpha Competition’s design philosophy focuses on optimizing flow dynamics.
Often featuring a larger diameter and a smoother design compared to the stock unit, the Alpha Competition pipe can potentially facilitate a more efficient flow of exhaust gases. This may translate to a reduction in backpressure, potentially liberating additional horsepower and torque, especially when combined with other well-matched performance modifications.
Reduced backpressure within the exhaust system may contribute to faster turbocharger spool up. This translates to quicker acceleration and a more exhilarating driving experience for performance-oriented drivers.
Balancing performance with ease of installation is a hallmark of Alpha Competition components. Their S58 crossover exhaust pipe is meticulously crafted from high-grade materials like T304 stainless steel, ensuring exceptional strength, durability, and corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance. This focus on quality materials often translates to a direct bolt-on installation process, minimizing downtime during the upgrade.
The actual performance gains from this upgrade may be modest and may not be readily noticeable in everyday driving conditions. Consulting independent dyno results or reviews from trusted sources can provide a clearer picture of potential improvements.
It is crucial to ensure the Alpha Competition crossover exhaust pipe is compatible with your specific S58 engine variant and any existing performance modifications you might have.
If maximizing horsepower and torque are your primary objectives, consider a holistic performance upgrade path that might include a combination of modifications such as:
- High-flow catalytic converters or catless downpipes (with legal considerations in mind)
- Performance air intake system
- Custom ECU tune tailored to your specific modifications

PREPREG is a common term for a reinforcing fabric such carbon which has been pre-impregnated with a resin system. This resin system (typically epoxy) already includes the proper curing agent. As a result, the prepreg is ready to be laid into the mold without the addition of any more resin. In order for the laminate to cure, an autoclave production process is used, a combination of high pressure and heat.
- Maximum strength and performance characterictics. In a hand layup production process, it is difficult to achieve 50% fabric and 50% resin content. Typical hand laminates, even when vacuum bagged, end up with a significant amount of excess resin. Excess resin increases brittleness and reduces overall strength properties. On the other hand, most prepregs contain around 35% resin. This is ideal for maximum cured properties and generally impossible to achieve in normal hand lamination.
- Uniformity and repeatability. The prepreg is of uniform thickness and each part coming out of the mold may theoretically be the same. Vacuum bagging technology may have some errors in processing, but prepreg ensures production consistency.
- Reduce curing time. After the thermal curing cycle, no need to wait for the standard 48 hours can be fully cured.
- Aesthetics. Although prepreg processing still requires mold preparation and demoulding, prepreg processing eliminates air bubbles, makes it easier to obtain a smooth, glossy surface as well as eliminates any seaming lines.
