NEW PRODUCT RELEASE: Dinan BMW F95 X5M & F96 X6M Middle Exhaust / X-Pipe
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com Dinan BMW F95 X5M & F96 X6M Middle Exhaust / X-Pipe Part Number(s): D660-0092 Applications:
Release Date: Available Now! Description: The Dinan X-Pipe for the F95 X5M and F96 X6M introduces a more aggressive tone and an increase in volume over the stock system. Coupled with the associated Dinan exhaust, the sound is further enhanced into a smoother, fuller, and more aggressive growl that perfectly encapsulates the dynamic nature of the V8 powered SAV’s. This full mid-section kit removes the hydro-formed factory center section, including the resonator, and replaces it with larger 3.25" T304 stainless steel tubing for freer flowing capabilities. In place of the factory resonator, Dinan incorporates a beautifully crafted X-pipe made from mandrel-bent tubing for minimum restriction, unlike stamped X-pipes which are commonplace in the market. This hand-made 'X' is not only the focal point of the system in terms of aesthetics but also the star when it comes to the effects on the sound. Promoting even flow to both banks of tips, the 'X' removes unwanted nuances in sound caused by uneven exhaust flow that is found in stock systems. Along with the inherent benefit of increased volume by removal of the resonator, the Dinan X-Pipe for the F9x X5M/X6M produces a louder, smoother and fuller exhaust note. Features/Benefits:

I ordered as well. I think with the secondary cats removed and the X pipe, it should be loud enough where it’s not obnoxious. I hope there’s no drone though.

This right here is exactly what I’m chasing. Can’t wait to hear how it sounds when i will place my order for the secondary cat delete

Question - Where it mates to the factory exhaust system, does the midpipe reduce down to the same exact size as the factory pipe diameter? If that is the case this should also work on those with the Akrapovic rear section because it attaches to the factory system at the same exact spot where the dimples are (where you cut)

Thanks. I wasn't sure if the way the dinan midpipe connects to the factory exhaust if its slightly bigger so you can insert the factory pipe into it or if it was same exact size and just connects with the clamp without any overlap from either pipe. If its the latter then the Akra will work.

Quick question regarding the Middle Exhaust/X-Pipe, which looks amazing BTW. I have heard, and read, that the exhaust for the X5M can also fit the M50i (which is the same as the xDrive 50i). Curious if this new piece would/could be retrofitted to the M50i/xDrive 50i? Visually looks possible, but welcome your expertise…and could potentially open up a lot of new customers if it fits. Thanks in advance! Cheers! Jeff |

I ask because I can say there is def demand from the G05 X5 M50i/xDrive 50i folks that are looking for some aftermarket exhaust stuff like this. 😊 Thanks again! |

Doubtful. Going off of memory as I don’t have the engineering images to reference remotely but I am nearly certain the reason we went the whole length is the vast majority of the stock mid is hydrformed pipe (ie: not round) which is required to get it to mate and create a seal without gaps. Pretty sure the first round section where cutting could occur was within a foot of the cats anyway so rather than make another cut for little reason (no real cost savings) we extended it all the way so it could just be unbolted and dropped on that end. |
