M Performance Exhaust Tips are angled

Aust350z · 06-02-2016, 06:37 AM

I'm keen to swap over exhaust tips of M2 for something larger without swapping the whole exhaust.

Active Autowerke has tips already but something just doesn't look right. These are 90mm just like the MPE but the tips seem to sit low to the diffuser.

Call me anal for perfection but my OCD wouldn't be able to live with it.

Looking at side shots of the stock M2 i've marked in red the position of the tips.

When you compare that to the MPE the height of the tips from the ground appears to be the same (red lines). However the tips are angled upwards (yellow lines) and also of a bigger diameter (90mm to stock 80mm). This closes the gap to the diffuser by 10mm that provides a more aesthetic visual. (see attached pics at the bottom).

Anal I know.

Not sure. I'm not sure on what the inlet pipe is for the F87. I think it might be 70mm from what I've seen of other third party tips. Most of the Chinese vendors will custom fabricate something to the exact measurements if we can confirm what they are.

I like those you posted but would love a Polished look.... this guy will do a silver polished version instead of gold....and of course without branding.

Very curious too. These look pretty awesome and at a quarter of the price

Hard to explain without picture but don't think there wil work properly without having to shorten the exhaust pipes of the m performance exhaust. These use a clap to tighten around the exhaust pipe, so if you would look inside the tips when mounted you would see an exhaust pipe sticking out. With the original tips the exhaust pipe slides in between 2 layers inner and outer tightened by a torx. Have also been looking into this option, because the tips are easy to steal and really expensive.
