Question

Hi.

Does anyone here use a BPM downpipe? What are your views regadarding quality and performance? Better or worse than Magnex?
Do BPM and Magnex downpipe fit to the original midsection? My car is a MY98 sedan.

Cheers!

Thumbs up

I loved my BPM but it won't fit the std mid section as the BPM is 3 inch and the mid is 2.5. You will need to get a custom mid made up for it. I got Scoobysport to make me one.

So a BPM is preferable over a Magnex then?

Ideal is probably BPM DP and HKS Hiper Exhaust which is a perfect fit!

The choice of a custom ScoobSport was on road characteristics - it allows the turbo to spool up much earlier (from 3000rpm as opposed to 3,800rpm on an STi). Typically I now focus my tuning much more for track! Ironic, huh!

Agree with Christian (did I really just type that!), BPM is best of the best, Trout used to run one on his modded 350bhp STi, think he opted for a custom open neck 3in ScoobySport one in the end.....

BPM are made from HPC coated mild steel, this means they are no as loud as the full stainless jobbies.....

Great power gains, I would take one over any other downpipe.
