Built for performance, economy and longevity!
Performance - You will enjoy reduced turbo lag and a noticeable performance difference throughout the entire rev range, the original downpipe exits the turbo with an immediate restriction. The DPF is designed to collect the particulate matter (soot) in the exhaust and then at extreme temperatures, burn the deposits off into ash. This poses a restriction in the exhaust system and by design induces excessive temperatures which have a direct effect on your turbocharger and intake temperatures. Removal of this filter will result in an excellent improvement in fuel economy and when coupled with the performance software, the new behaviour of the vehicle is remarkable. Turbo life will be extended and turbo lag will be substantially reduced.
Economy - You will experience a 5-10 mpg improvement over the original DPF depending on your driving style and software selection.
Longevity - Your upgraded downpipe is over-engineered in 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel and the flexible coupling in 304 Grade Stainless Steel, flanges are laser cut for a perfect fit and finish, your new downpipe should outlast the life of your vehicle. You should also expect extended turbo life as a result of reduced turbo temperatures.
How does it fit? - This downpipe was carefully developed using the Genuine BMW factory item as a template and tested on the vehicle; improvements were made to flow where possible. Every downpipe is hand made using a jig ensuring a perfect fit every time.

No.

I would flash the DDE to increase performance but would not eliminate the emissions components.

But I have much faster cars to play with...

May I ask what company is providing the solution?

M5D 09-13-2012 02:19 PM

You will find them on Ebay in the Uk!

I contacted a company in England about this last year. They said the US DPF had a different part number and wanted me to send them my DPF so they could fabricate a pipe.
It is a great mod in my opinion, because of the improved fuel economy and the ability to use biodiesel. You will however void your warranty, and you will have visible smoke from the exhaust pipes.

Here is a 530D in England with the DPF removed showing a little diesel smoke.

That would be great if we could get it with the warranty intact. :)BMW 330D DPF REMOVAL AND STAINLESS BUILD - YouTube

It would be interesting to know if the software change(s) simply turns off the codes the O2, EGT, and exhaust pressure sensor may throw or if there is a way to turn off the DPF regeneration cycle.

Has anyone here in the US incorporated this mod? Anyone know the name of the company in the UK?
