Active Autowerke BMW M2 Competition Exhaust Mid-Pipe for F87 M2C and M2 CS
The Active Autowerke AA Mid-Pipe is the go-to BMW M2 Competition exhaust upgrade for the S55 engine. Built by a BMW performance specialist with over 30 years of engineering experience, this single 3.5 inch oval mid pipe transforms how your M2C or M2 CS sounds and performs. Expect a deeper, throatier exhaust note, less back pressure, quicker turbo spool and real gains you can feel. It is engineered as an exact fit centre section for the F87 platform and is a proven fix for the stock M2C rasp that many describe as a weed eater sound.

- Less restrictive than the stock dual mid section which uses silencers and a small crossover
- Noticeably deeper, more harmonious exhaust note expected from an M car
- Designed specifically for the F87 M2 Competition and M2 CS with the S55
Key performance benefits
