If you're looking to upgrade your BMW F22 M235i, the Active Autowerke Gen 2 exhaust is a solid choice. This isn't just any aftermarket exhaust; it's built from 100% brushed 304 stainless steel, which means it's tough enough to last while looking sharp. The adjustable double-walled tips come in brushed, black, or carbon finishes, so you can match your style whether you’ve got a coupe or a sedan.
One of the coolest features of this exhaust is how it works with the OEM valve system. When you open the valves via the ECU, you really notice the difference in sound—it’s like a whole new beast. You get that aggressive sport sound when you want it, but when you’re cruising, it’s mellow and non-intrusive. Perfect for those long drives or early morning starts.
Now, let’s talk performance. This exhaust is designed to improve gas flow significantly compared to the stock setup. We’re talking about a straight-through design that can give you a boost of 12-15 horsepower. That midrange torque? It’s going to feel much more responsive. Plus, the innovative muffler design really cranks up the volume when the valves are open, giving you that true sporty growl.
Installation is pretty straightforward, thanks to the height-adjustable mounting brackets and the heavy-duty TORCA style clamps. These clamps are known for their strength and sealing capabilities, so you can count on a tight fit without any leaks. And don’t worry about getting lost during the install; it comes with a complete illustrated manual to guide you through it.
