Falcon Turbos 3.5” Performance Downpipe – Ultimate Upgrade for E/F Series BMW
The Falcon Turbos performance BMW N57 / N57N / N57S / N57Z 3.5″ downpipe is one of the most advanced and best-constructed downpipes on the market today, engineered specifically for high-performance tuned BMW diesel vehicles.
Designed and tested on Falcon Turbos’ own development vehicle, this BMW N57 / N57N / N57S / N57Z 3.5″ downpipe delivers the ideal balance of performance, reliability, and noise control.
Maximum Performance with Smart Exhaust Design
This downpipe features:
-
3.5” inlet diameter – maximises exhaust flow straight off the turbo
-
3” outlet diameter – optimised for the best balance of power and sound
Testing has shown that running exhaust systems larger than 3” after the downpipe offers no measurable performance gains, but significantly increases exhaust noise. This design gives you maximum power without unnecessary drone or harshness.
⚠️ Minor modification is required if fitting to a factory exhaust system.
Built from Premium T316 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel
The Falcon Turbos downpipe is manufactured from T316 marine-grade stainless steel, offering:
-
Superior corrosion resistance
-
High temperature durability
-
Long-term reliability in harsh environments
It also includes a high-quality flex joint, allowing the exhaust system to move and flex with the engine without cracking or stressing other components.
Advanced Thermal Insulation for Lower Engine Bay Temperatures
To further improve performance and reliability, this downpipe features 8mm of integrated thermal insulation, which:
-
Dramatically reduces radiant heat
-
Protects nearby components
-
Helps maintain lower intake and engine bay temperatures
-
Improves overall turbo efficiency
This makes it ideal for high-boost and hard-driven vehicles.
Sensor Compatibility
The downpipe includes fittings for all factory sensors, except the DPF pressure sensor, which is typically removed in tuned applications.
Off-Road Use Only
⚠️ STRICTLY FOR OFF-ROAD USE ONLY
This downpipe is designed for competition, track, and off-road vehicles and is not intended for use on public roads.
