Just found these on eBay, apparently they are catless downpipes for the n63 f chassis, but are they legit? I've never heard of the company "Becker Performance" before but I feel like for $200.00 they cannot be that reliable? It is more like n55 pricing than n63

This doesnt surprise me.
Companys buy existing parts copy and rebrand to sell for close to nothing.

check the other downpipes for the 3 series from the same company.
All are cheap!
Hmmmm????

Installing downpipes on a n63 or tu is expensive, and looks like it will cost more then the downpipes themselves. So its hard to ask for a guinea pig.

Last thing you would want is to be called by installer saying it doesn't fit and you just spent 200+400 min on install for nothing.

i can get mine installed for about $100-$150

Ill be the guinea pig, I saw these earlier from my phone just never got a chance to post here. Still waiting for my AR downpipes since they're "made to order". Im installing myself so theres no extra cost there.

Do they have catless non resonated?

This... China is getting better and better at copying things, the issue is even 1/4 inch off on clocking any of the bends and it wont fit at all, and you also may want to check into the materials used as well as thickness. I haven't tried these, but I've installed a LOT of knock off long tube headers for Ford and GM vehicles, and its really a crapshoot. Some are awesome, others hit floor boards, don't aim in the right direction and require exhaust modification, leak, etc.

Pay once now or twice later.

Edit - finally looked at them, the Tig welding is average at best, but as long as they don't leak, I guess its not an issue. If I were to build those myself using stainless, id have about $160 invested in just parts, flanges and bends, so either someone is losing out on a lot of money or built a jig and just has nothing better to do with their time besides build downpipes. Ive seen eBay turbo manifolds last a long time before so maybe you will get lucky on these.

With the money that will be spent to get it shipped and installed ( then shipped back) i recommend just getting the Evolution Racewerks Downpipes while they are still on sale.

No one buys it because they are not advertising it. So Im not blaming you for it, but you should know they do make them.

I was confident that they do make it but i could not find it on our website, then i went the ER website and did not find it there. Glad im not going crazy
So what i said above still applies, take advantage of the sale on the ER DP ( ends April 23rd) i will be adding the DP on our website and vendor section today.
