The VRSF BMW N55 3.5″ Ceramic Coated Downpipe is the ultimate performance upgrade for BMW 135i & 335i/xi, designed to improve turbo spool, increase horsepower, and enhance exhaust flow. By eliminating the restrictive factory catalytic converter, this high-flow downpipe significantly reduces backpressure, allowing the turbo to spool faster and work more efficiently, resulting in more power and a deeper, more aggressive exhaust note. Engineered with a CFD-optimized cast merge collector, the VRSF N55 3.5″ Ceramic Coated Downpipe provides the smoothest transition from the turbo to the mid-pipe, ensuring maximum exhaust flow and performance gains.

Crafted from TIG-welded, mandrel-bent 304-grade stainless steel, this N55 downpipe upgrade offers exceptional durability and resistance to extreme heat, making it ideal for high-boost applications. Each VRSF downpipe is precision-engineered for a direct bolt-on installation and includes high-quality replacement hardware and mid-pipe gaskets. For vehicles with over 60,000 miles, we highly recommend purchasing the optional turbo clamp and gaskets to ensure a secure, leak-free fit.

This VRSF N55 3.5″ Ceramic Coated Downpipe now comes standard with Cerakote’s high-temperature ceramic coating, included at no extra cost. This premium thermal barrier coating helps retain heat inside the exhaust system, significantly reducing engine bay temperatures. By keeping hot air contained within the downpipe, this upgrade also contributes to lower intake air temperatures, reduced coolant temperatures, and improved transmission oil cooling, enhancing overall engine performance and reliability.

If you’re looking for the best bang-for-the-buck performance mod for your N55-powered BMW 135i or 335i/xi, the VRSF N55 3.5″ Ceramic Coated Downpipe is a must-have upgrade, delivering faster turbo spool, increased horsepower, and a more aggressive exhaust tone while helping to maintain optimal engine temperatures.

Material

304 Stainless Steel

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.
