Yesterday I took a trip over to EnzoPerformance for a Downpipe installation and tuning of my car. A few short hours later I was pleasantly surprised with the result. Here's the video of my car:

I can say that the car feels much lively-er and power feels almost instantaneous. The first thing I noticed was how incredibly smooth power delivery was. There is zero hesitation or delay. While the Dp did not really net me any gains, I do enjoy the improved sound.

Video clip of the exhaust note is needed. I couldn't hear anything from your video... just the dyno rollers slowing down. lol
hp and tq numbers seem a little low though for my taste... but then again you're pretty much stock so I guess that is understandable.

Will be uploading a video shortly of the sound. Cars stock except for a catless dp and it will probably remain that way for a while.

Mainline dyno so it reads lower than Mustang which reads lower than Dynojet , but yea he's fully stock except DP & ECU Flash.

Maybe I understand it wrong, but why there are only 213 hp in stock on 228i? Shouldnt it be 245 hp?

245 is the hp at the crank. The actual number (wheel horsepower) will always be lower.

correct however in this case the N20 puts out closer to 260&290 at the crank. More accurate dynos have consistently showed 233hp&255lbs to the wheels

e46m3lol did u ever Dyno before and after Downpipe to see if there was any Actual Gains?
I know most sellers say there is but they're #Vendors now some ppl have said there's very little gains in the N20 engine, unless specifically tuned aggressively or something.

Amessforone got a video clip yet?

I installed the larger turbo and downpipe at the same time so I don't have any info on the hp/tq increase of just the down pipe or the turbo. I did notice after the install of both parts the car felt more alive and spooled quicker even without a tune.
