Benchmade Proper...... YEAP... sound mod coming soon!
just dropped off from greeens to Benchmade Proper,
they are going to make a custom 3.5" downpipe, and 3.5" all the way to the rear axle, and 3" y-pipe it out to Vibrant ultra quite resonators, to their custom quad tips. check their products out at benchmadeproper.com, I had a great experience with them, their weld looks great!! (like Pie-cut...) I will keep you updated, as of forum rule, I can not disclose any pricing, but give them a call (Joe, owner), he will hook the forum people up! -John some example of their work! (e92 335i) my previous Audi s6 (v10!!) |

3.5" ?!!
Does the turbo outlet fit into this downpipe? I have bought an AR Catless Downpipe recently (haven't installed it yet). The turbo side pipe seems like 2.5" and tapers gradually to 3". I actually like the quality of it and the cplor coating. Here's a pic for you guys.

Not yet... But hopefully that j bung will get rid of CEL.. (crossing fingers..)
They are menufacturing company so stay tune for their "kit" to come out. They are very well known in GT-R community and that j-bung did trick on them so lets hope our ECU is just about the same smartness with GT-R's. Lol Videos: |

any droning?
sounds pretty good! according to my understanding the jbung doesnt fix our CEL for our cars. i had the jbung on my g37 when i put on test pipes and it worked well, but according to my understanding the ECU is still triggered at this point and the CEL has to be cleared by the O2 Simulator from the ecu box. ur CEL should come on after about 100 miles the ECU is still trying to adapt exhaust sounds really good though!

I hope not, but no one tried j bung yet on our f10 n55 so lets see if it really hit that sweet spot! RSi told me they are currently working with BMS about this too, so one way or the other result will be good. I am just mad i paid the extra $75 when i was ordering JB3 for the CANtool, which dont even work on our car. Terry should specify this on his site..
