    I used a zip tie to squeeze them together to get the bolt started. I didn't have a lift either. Those V-bands are no joke....

    Great Video! Lots easier than doing 2 downpipes on the N54s that I own. V-bands can be a pain in the A$$! Maybe take the engine plate down next time? Will give more clearance.

    I’m having the same trouble you guys had getting the top vband clamp on. I’m doing it on jack and jack stands, how did you manage to get that first couple threads in?

    Would you be able to pass emissions with the aftermarket high flow catted downpipe like the one you installed in this vid?

      +@SportGuyDMV depends on where you live probably. Ask the manufacturer

    Just tried this on the ground and that top clamp on the XDRIVE models is insanely tough to get to and align … there is literally no easy access to it anywhere in the bay lol

      @@HelpMeDIY I did end up getting it … I ran open downpipe for 3 days lol then got the car on a lift - lowkey the bottom clamp was not easy either and I disconnected the entire exhaust. I have a 4 series gran coupe so there’s a ton of braces under the car to keep the exhaust up but I wouldn’t have been able to do it otherwise.

    Thanks for the good footage of the bottom v clamp. I was putting my stock exhaust back on so I can pass emissions and was having trouble seeding those fucking teeth lol

    Do the catless downpipes fit the M3/M4?….Are they for sale?

    • @zchef2k
      @zchef2k 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, the turbos on the S55 are different than the N55.

    Why did you decide to go for the high flow catted instead of the catless

    • @HelpMeDIY
      @HelpMeDIY  ปีที่แล้ว

      +mac not mine, but I think it’s because it’s his daily driver and needs to pass inspection

      the smell of catless was a bit much as was the drone.
