Restrictions in the exhaust system robs horsepower and torque especially on turbocharged cars. Thus, removing as much exhaust flow restrictions will increase horsepower and torque significantly. The G8X M2/M3/M4 utilize a Y style mid pipe. However, both two downpipes are both on the right side of the engine. The left side downpipe connects to the "crossover" pipe as it crosses over to the left side underneath the transmission to connect to the midpipes. The right side downpipe connects directly to the mid pipe. Since this crossover pipe goes under the transmission, BMW squished the round pipe into an oval to give clearance. However, by going from a round tube to an oval, this causes turbulence inside the pipe which causes a restriction. We found that there is plenty of clearance to keep the tubing round, and thus we built our replacement Crossover Pipe without needing to squish the tubing. The factory crossover pipe utilizes cast components so it is quite heavy. The Evolution Racewerks replacement Crossover Pipe is lighter and thus some weight savings can be had.
The Evolution Racewerks Crossover Pipe is designed to fit perfectly with either the factory or your aftermarket mid pipes - however best gains will be contributed combining with Evolution Racewerks Sport Series High-Flow Catted Downpipes.

Optional Ceramic Thermal Coating
The purpose of ceramic coating downpipes is to keep heat from the exhaust gases inside the downpipe from radiating out. This keeps underhood temperatures lower and less heat absorption by nearby parts/surfaces. Another added benefit is that by keeping in heat (energy) in the exhaust gases inside the downpipe, exhaust flow velocities stay up, resulting in lower backpressure. The ceramic coating also adds additional corrosion resistance. We utilize the best ceramic coating possible. Our thermal coating can resist up to 2000F of heat. It is available in black only (all the other colors cannot withstand heat that high).
