Find Parts That Fit Your Vehicle

Supersprint BMW Performance Headers & Downpipes

Headers are a bolt-on component that will make a huge improvement in how your BMW performs. As a replacement for your factory BMW exhaust manifold, our BMW headers provide a more direct path for exhaust gasses leaving your engine. Headers prevent your BMW's exhaust pulses from 'fighting' one another as they leave the head. The end result is that BMW headers give you more power and torque, and you'll love the high-winding top end push that a free-breathing engine exhibits. BMW headers are a must-have if you're doing any engine modifications on your vehicle. Along with a cold air intake, BMW headers provide the free-flowing exhaust necessary to get the most power out of your motor.

Special Pricing! The stock exhaust manifolds on the 545i and 550i models are an easy target for making more power and torque. They are efficiently designed for mass production and not tuned expressly for making power. And the catalytic converters are embedded in the stock manifolds for emissions purposes. The Supersprint headers are a direct fit to all 2004-2010 E60 545i and 550i models and their tubular design with merge collectors have been proven to make significant horsepower and torque gains. With the full header and sport cat setup they measured 30hp at the wheels on a stock 545i! And the fitment and quality of the Supersprint headers is second to none.

Supersprint exhaust is widely recognized as the leader in complete exhaust system upgrades - extremely high quality, well designed for optimal flow, and amazing sound. Even at a premium price Supersprint is an unbeatable exhaust design because every aspect is done to such a high level. Most Supersprint systems are built with larger diameter piping to improve exhaust flow which helps the engine do less work and make more horsepower! Supersprint exhausts generally run at a premium over other systems but no other system on the market can match their quality, performance, or reputation!

click for high quality

These headers are handcrafted in Italy by Supersprint and are beautiful as well as functional. The stock M5/M6 header system is pretty good as far as BMW systems go... but Supersprint has improved on the design with mandrel-bent tubing (not crushed tubing like the stock system), full stainless-steel construction, and a bolt-on installation (the engine does not require removal). Each tube is mounted to the exhaust ports with the correct-sized flanges. The tubes are as close to equal length as possible and merge together in Supersprint's precision collector.

Dyno Chart


These headers can then be bolted to the rest of the factory exhaust or installed with Supersprint high-flow catalytic converters. Dyno testing has shown repeated gains of over 60hp with the complete system. You can choose to buy only the Supersprint headers to bolt to the stock secondary cats or high-flow Supersprint secondary cats are an option.

Removal of the factory headers and installation of the Supersprint headers can be done with the engine in the car - the engine does not need to be removed at any time. Also, there is no cutting, welding, or fabricating required. Thesewill bolt to existing flanges or piping. However, because the process involves the removal of several critical systems and components to gain access to the engine (the external oil pumps of the dry-sump oiling system, for instance) theinstallation of these headers should only be done by a shop familiar with installations of intricate header systems.

Because of the time that Supersprint's engineers dedicate to building these headers, they will be in very short supply, ensuring its exclusivity as the finest aftermarket headers available for the M5/M6 in the world.

Applications:
2006- newer E60 M5 sedan
2007- newer E63 M6 coupe, E64 M6 cabrio

These equal length, stainless steel headers replace the stock manifolds for an instant power and sound upgrade. The stock exhaust manifolds are compromises and severely restricted. This header kit opens up the exhaust for a less restrictive flow. There is a beautiful sound to go with the torque and horsepower improvements.

Supersprint exhaust is widely recognized as the leader in complete exhaust system upgrades - extremely high quality, well designed for optimal flow, and amazing sound.

The Supersprint sound is very 'European' which fits the sporting sophistication of BMWs perfectly. Most systems are also modular - sections can be added or removed to custom tailor the exhaust sound to your preferance. Aside from 'Race' systems, their mufflers meet European noise laws so you get a refined and tuned sound without being excessively loud. Most Supersprint systems are built with larger diameter piping to improve exhaust flow which helps the engine do less work and make more horsepower! Supersprint exhausts generally run at a premium over other systems but no other system on the market can match their quality, performance, or reputation!

NOTE: Supersprint engineers and manufactures complete exhaust systems. This part was designed to be used with the rest of the Supersprint system on this car but may be used on its own. Supersprint has designed these headers to replace the factory exhaust manifolds/catalytic converters. Metallic sport cats are available but additional work and parts may be required to ensure the car meets emissions regulations.

Experience the latest design innovation from Supersprint for the E85/86 Z4M (MZ4) -- 'stepped' design headers. While the technology has been in widespread use in Formula 1 for awhile, this is the first application of a stepped design on the Z4 M Coupe/Roadster. In an engine that is tuned as much as the S54, airflow management is critical in getting big horsepower numbers from the exhaust. The Supersprint design is the next step in innovation in header design. By slightly increasing the size of the pipe diameters as the exhaust system moves away from the engine, the exhaust can flow more air. Supersprint design is tuned specifically for the S54 engine which is important in making more power without losing low-end torque. The headers merge into a precision-fit merge collector. Total horsepower gain with the complete system over a US Vehicle would be more than 30 hp. 15-19 hp gain over 'Euro-style' headers full stepped tubular and equal length headers bolts to the engine with factory hardware and gaskets used with Supersprint stepped section 1 (with or without cats) Included in this kit are Supersprint metallic sport cats designed to pair right up top Supersprint's own stepped headers. The piping is slightly oversized and the Supersprint sport cats are much freer-flowing than a traditional stock cat. With less restriction, less effort is required to move the exhaust gasses which will free up horsepower and torque. This cat section will only mount to the Supersprint full stepped headers (p/n 044001) and then to any section 2. These cats are built with O2 sensor bungs pre-installed after the cat if you wanted to extend your stock post-cat O2 sensors (however, special software may still be needed). When deciding on the right exhaust the hardest part is feeling confident in the best sound mixed with increased performance, this really leaves you to guess based on reputation. Fortunately, Supersprint has the reputation covered when it comes to BMW exhausts. For over 60 years their goal has always been designing and building the highest quality exhaust available. This has been achieved through extensive testing using real race teams to get the best feedback there is to offer, from the ones who demand the best every day. Extensive dyno testing, high-quality materials, and race team feedback are what allow Supersprint to extract the power from your engine, not just the noise. Supersprint exhausts offer quality, performance, and a great reputation that no other systems on the market can match!

Special pricing! Free ground shipping!Headers should be part of any M20 performance project or restoration. These Supersprint tubular headers are a larger diameter and have better flow than the stock exhaust manifolds and they make more power. And since the stock headers are known to be brittle and can crack over time these make for an excellent upgrade replacement.

This header system features an X-pipe after the headers to improve exhaust flow and scavenging. The X-pipe helps the exhaust gas mix and then flow into the rest of the exhaust. This header system has straight outlets from the X-pipe so a custom center section is recommended. Supersprint also makes a header and X-pipe to fit to the factory E30 catalytic converter.
