Best Exhaust Setup For Your BMW M2! (VRSF Catless Downpipe Install/Review)

[@F80Ho]

Sounds insane!!! N55 is too good 🔥 welcome to the catless life 🙌🏽, fire vid bros

[@MotoGearTV]

Yessir enjoying every second of it✊🏾

Finally found a Jamaican bmw channel 🇯🇲🖤

[@MotoGearTV]

Big up✊🏾

[@EstebanValentin]

Sounds really good! The N55 sounds great. Loved my M2 setup and I was running my N55 135i on catless like you and sounded great!

[@MotoGearTV]

Thanks man! The N55 is definitely on our list of the best sounding engines from BMW 👍

[@lespenseurslibres]

Insane exhaust sound!!! Shout out from Switzerland, the M2 is also an amazing daily driver out here in these mountains! 😉

[@MotoGearTV]

I can imagine with way nicer roads lol👍🏾

[@ShrugMedia]

15:19 “spicy” 😂 the vrsf downpipe really opened her up and brought the exhaust to life! Oooooweeeee

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

I am madly in love with the N55! The og M2 is a dream for me. I bought what I could afford the closest thing that sounds like a M2 a N55 135i

[@MotoGearTV]

Great choice man I had a N55 E90 335i before the M2 and definitely helped with my decision, such a great sounding engine👍🏾

[@Justynt91]

The engine cover is beautiful 😍 where did you buy it from?

[@MotoGearTV]

That cover is from Turner Motorsport, however, we also have other carbon pieces available on our website motogeargarage.com

[@boostlee876]

Solid video! When you tune the difference is going to be crazy. You can also remove the cold start high idle to be a little less conspicuous

[@MotoGearTV]

Yeah can’t wait and might have to tone the start down for real before my neighbors report me lol

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Is its safe to remove the cold start function?

[@MotoGearTV]

Sure it’s fine but still make sure to allow your car to warm up properly

[@boostlee876]

@@carcrazyguysa4059 The purpose of the high idle is to warm the cat up quickly to bring the exhaust system up to emissions spec as quick as possible. If you notice When your high idle cuts out your car engine is still cold. If you no longer have a cat to warm up a high idle start up isn’t necessary. That coupled with the fact that most of the regular operating wear to engines happens from cold starts so if I can reduce the aggressiveness of it I’m all for it 👍🏾

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

@@boostlee876 Makes sense. Thank you for the explanation

[@ovnilab]

*Pure sickness! Love it! Your vid is convincing me to get this set up.*

[@MotoGearTV]

Do it! You won't be disappointed!

[@ovnilab]

@@MotoGearTV Two questions for you. Do you know where I can get some super bright license plate led's? And secondly, can you point me in the direction of any BMW specialty/tuner/repair shops (that you trust) I can safely take my now out of warranty 2018 M2 on the Florida west coast, between Tampa and Brooksville to the north?

[@MotoGearTV]

Yeah we actually sell the ones I use on my M2 on our site see link below. As for repair shops in that area not too familiar with any to be honest, we only use WTF Motorsports in Orlando if we can’t do it ourselves. motogeargarage.com/products/mgg-led-license-plate-light-upgrade

nice quality video man !

Sick setup how's the smell of the dp?

Not too bad, I usually drive with my windows up so it doesn’t really bother me

[@crimsonpirate1710]

Dafunk sounds. Much love from the UK.

[@skrrtproductions]

Great install vid and review brotha. The turbo has come alive!! 🌶. Exhaust mods have got to be the most fun, but the tune is going to bring even more smiles per gallon

[@MotoGearTV]

Yessir 🔥 it'll be a completely different car.

[@kaiichinose9590]

Love your content brother. Quick question and you may have mentioned it but where did you get your engine cover and it looks like a half cover which I will need for some new goodies coming.

[@MotoGearTV]

I'm glad you like it! That engine cover is from Turner Motorsport. You can watch the full install and review here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXualmNohrB1mck Also, the other carbon fiber parts on the car can be found on our website motogeargarage.com

@@MotoGearTV thanks man. I picked up a 2018 LCI last month and its stock minus the MPE. I cannot wait to start this journey. Keep up the great work.

[@teeimsaza5718]

What axle back are you running? OEM? Or MPE?

[@MotoGearTV]

MPE catback system

[@drifter2090]

Sounds great! Any added drone?

[@MotoGearTV]

Very slight change but I spoke about it during the driving portion of the video

[@drifter2090]

@@MotoGearTV Oh okay I re-watched that part now, do you still have ASD on?

[@MotoGearTV]

Yes still on, not sure if I’ll code it out as yet

[@ammo444]

Sweet sounds of the N55

[@MotoGearTV]

Absolute Symphony 🤌🏾

[@ammo444]

@@MotoGearTV I think it sounds better than the b58 esp with the m performance exhaust.

[@MotoGearTV]

Agreed, one of the best sounding turbo engine BMW has done in my opinion

[@jaydongeiser2585]

Will the DP fit the new 2023 M2 G87?

[@MotoGearTV]

The new G87 M2 uses a completely different engine (S58), so this downpipe will not work for that application.

[@f87]

Any thoughts on catted VRSF downpipe paired with MPE? Thanks for this video.

[@MotoGearTV]

Great choice as well but not as loud and less exhaust smell, we have both options on our site👍🏾

[@gerryspeirs]

Sounds awesome! Also, is that a stock seatbelt in blue??

[@MotoGearTV]

We actually did a seatbelt color swap a while back. You can check out that install here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/amXdmmSso9J_e6c

[@Jordan_bandz]

You make me wanna buy a M2

[@MotoGearTV]

You should consider it, it’s a great car👍🏾

[@ovnilab]

*If you can, do it! You wont regret it. I got a 2018 M2 F87 LCI and have loved this thing since day one! Awesome daily driver too!*

[@williamdtt]

hi ! do you have had errors code ? and how do you have solved them ?

[@MotoGearTV]

The car needs to be tuned to remove the CEL. You can use apps like MHD which requires a Wi-Fi adapter, we have them available on our site as well

[@mikeyryapolov8618]

Also, any supporting mods to support the downpipe or an intake and OEM intercooler good?

[@MotoGearTV]

Yes I have other supporting mods although an upgraded intake isn’t required to run a catless downpipe just a tune.

[@ericm8368]

Best is subjective. Sounds better with the sport cat imo. Gives it a deeper and smoother tone. Sounds more exotic and refined. The castles is just raspy and loud with little tone. Sounds cheap…which it is…so for me I’d rather spend the extra $250 and not have the embarrassment of explaining no my car isn’t leaking gas I just like the smell of it as I roll up my windows and hope the light turns green.

[@MotoGearTV]

To each their own I guess, it sounds great to me and that’s what matters, I’ve had the sports cat in the past on my 335i and while nice it wasn’t as rowdy as I wanted it to be. This being affordable makes little difference from any other catless downpipe on the market, but we all have what we prefer and that’s fine👍🏾

[@TheSeanpoppa]

Sounds like a good job

[@mikeyryapolov8618]

Hey, did you get the track limited version or the other? And did it throw on any dash lights / emission issues?

[@MotoGearTV]

I’m not sure what exactly are you referring to?

[@mikeyryapolov8618]

@@MotoGearTV I mean like sometimes downpours trigger check engine lights. Did the VRSF one do so?

[@MotoGearTV]

Yes any catless downpipe will trigger a check engine light without a tune because the ecu will recognize the catalytic converter is missing. So it’s recommended to run a tune once you go this route otherwise it’s better to get a high flow downpipe instead.

[@mikeyryapolov8618]

@@MotoGearTV if I was to get a high flow downpipe, will it still trigger a light?

[@MotoGearTV]

In most cases no but I can’t speak for all

[@yuansichen2763]

Is your m2 exhaust all stock except that downpipe? I want to change it, but my others are all stock. Does the exhaust sound become louder if I only switch to this downpipe?

[@MotoGearTV]

I have the M performance catback exhaust on it as well. If you change just your downpipe only there will definitely be a difference in sound. I have them in stock if you’re interested in getting one

[@33rdworldwide]

Nice just subscribed 🔥

[@MotoGearTV]

Appreciate the support ✊🏾

[@User38679]

Do you really need to tune the car when getting a catless downpipe?

[@MotoGearTV]

Yes if you want utilize the full potential of the extra exhaust flow, the car will still be able to drive around if you don’t but you will get a check engine light

Man, this is amazing. I am a dark skin male in the U.S. I am currently working at a game company and building my career, and uploading on my my other channels and buildings those. I discovered another neat little car that rose to the top of my list as my next option. The M240i. It also has the B58. I have been researching for months now. So my next choices are a Supra, M240i, or M4. I am leaning towards the M240i because of the price, B58, and extra space. I have researched the F82 M4 and A90 Supra. Now I have discovered this neat little M240i car with the x-Drive option. I think my next car in the future will be a 2017-2020 M240i because of the price, AWD x-Drive option, it has the B58 engine, and it has the extra car space I like. I don't like the appearance of the next generation of 2 series cars. 2018-2020 are the years I will choose. I have a stock 2016 Genesis Coupe 3.8 right now. The car is already becoming rare. Save it for the value, or sell it? Hmmm. 348 horsepower was nice to experience, but I am ready for the next level. I have never been in a turbocharged or supercharged car before.
