The aFe 2-1/2 inch SS Cat-Back Exhaust for the BMW 228i (2014-2016) is a high-performance exhaust system designed to enhance vehicle efficiency and power output. Constructed from mandrel-bent stainless steel, this system ensures maximum exhaust flow, resulting in increased horsepower and torque. It is dyno-tested and flow bench validated to deliver optimal gains, while features such as welded hangers with swaged ends and premium quality materials contribute to long-lasting durability. The system also helps lower exhaust gas temperatures, improving overall engine performance and efficiency. Its design emphasizes improved flow dynamics and a robust construction, making it a reliable upgrade for enthusiasts seeking better performance and sound.

This cat-back exhaust is a direct bolt-on upgrade for the BMW 228i models from 2014 to 2016. It is compatible with vehicles equipped with a 2-1/2 inch exhaust diameter and is intended for street and performance use. The system replaces the factory exhaust components, providing a noticeable increase in power and a more aggressive exhaust note. Installation involves replacing the stock exhaust with this system, which includes all necessary welded hangers and fittings. Suitable for daily driving, spirited street driving, or track use, this exhaust system offers a combination of performance gains and durability, making it an ideal upgrade for BMW enthusiasts looking to improve their vehicle’s exhaust flow and sound.

Overview

  • Increases horsepower and torque
  • Improves performance
  • Lowers exhaust gas temperature
  • Flow bench and dyno tested
  • Welded hangers with swaged ends
  • Slotted and swedged ends
  • Premium quality band clamps
  • Backed by a 2-year limited warranty
  • Proudly made in the USA

A performance exhaust system is one of the most common ways of improving a vehicle's operation. The theory is simple; just reduce restriction to increase exhaust flow and you gain power. But all exhaust systems are not created equal; in reality there's more to it than just selling some sewer pipe sized tubes.

aFe tests its systems on the flow bench and the dynamometer to determine the right pipe size and muffler construction. Then they mandrel bend the pipes to ensure they maintain their shape and size throughout the entire length, to provide smooth, unrestricted airflow. Tubes that are not mandrel bent can lose up to 20% of their diameter in sharp bends. Some systems also include a straight muffler delete pipe if a more aggressive sound and maximum flow is desired. A typical aFe system will increase exhaust flow by up to 29% and lower EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) by up to 100º, with a corresponding improvement in power and performance.

But performance is only part of the equation. A quality exhaust system should be easy to install and made to last. The muffler and all pipes of the Mach Force XP system are constructed from durable 409 stainless steel. To ensure a tight seal, slotted and swedged ends are used whenever possible. When used with the supplied premium quality band clamps, the tightest, leak-free seal is the result. Every hanger is thoroughly welded

DETAILS:

A resonator delete pipe and free-flowing muffler make this direct bolt-on cat-back unleash a sound the N20 should've came with from the factory.
