Transform your BMW with the Redstar B58N/B58X Downpipe, purpose-built for the B58B30M2 engine used across the latest M340i/M340iX, M440i/M440iX, M540iX/550eX, 735i/740i/740ix/750eX/M760eX, X3 M50, X5 40i/40iX/50eX, X6 40iX, X7 40iX and XM 50e models. Replacing the restrictive factory catalyst or OPF section directly after the turbo, this performance exhaust upgrade is engineered to free up exhaust flow on G20 LCI, G21 LCI, G22, G23, G26 LCI, G60, G61, G70, G45, G05, G06, G07 and G09 platforms.
A flow-optimised smooth-transition design reduces backpressure to sharpen throttle response, promote faster turbo spool and unlock a noticeable increase in power. An OPF delete configuration is available, and Redstar’s OEM-style heat shielding option cuts radiant exhaust heat by up to 80% to help manage under-bonnet temperatures and support long-term component reliability. The result is a crisper, more assertive exhaust note with enhanced drivability.
Manufactured from high-grade 2.0 mm wall 304 stainless steel, each Redstar downpipe is 100% TIG welded and back purged for strength and consistency, and interfaces to the system using an OEM-spec V-band flange. Designed as a true bolt-on upgrade, Redstar downpipes integrate with factory mounts and deliver the brand’s hallmark balance of performance, quality and durability for enthusiasts seeking premium downpipes and performance exhaust solutions.
Available Options
- HJS HD 200cpsi Catalytic Converters: Engineered in Germany and trusted worldwide, the HJS 200cpsi ultra high-performance cats are rated for over 1000hp. Renowned for exceptional flow, durability, and consistent quality, these converters set the benchmark for high-output applications. Ideal for drivers demanding maximum performance without compromise.
- GESI GEN2 400cpsi Catalytic Converters: The latest GEN2 series from GESI is rated to support up to 1000hp while offering smoother exhaust flow and improved efficiency compared with factory units.
