MACH Force XP exhaust systems are the perfect combination of performance; fit; and value. All systems use factory mounting locations providing stability and hassle-free installation. High quality OE style band clamps are used for a complete 360 deg. sealing surface. A free-flowing 24 in. long muffler is used to absorb high pitch tones producing a powerful sound and unleashing all available horsepower and torque out of your rig. OE style bayonet hangers are used to maintain a stable pipe location during high vibration and high heat conditions. The bayonet tip holds the hanger bushing in place for an OE style fit that does not change with time.

The aFe MACH Force XP Cat-Back Exhaust System is engineered for BMW E46 325i/ci and 330i/ci models equipped with the M54 inline-six engine. Part number AFE49-46309 uses mandrel-bent 2.25-inch 409 stainless steel tubing to improve exhaust flow, support increased horsepower and torque, and help reduce exhaust gas temperatures. The system is designed as a direct-fit replacement that uses factory mounting locations for a stable installation without vehicle modifications.

A high-flow, true dual-inlet and dual-outlet muffler with a 24-inch body helps reduce restrictive backpressure while producing a deeper, performance-oriented exhaust note. OE-style band clamps provide a complete 360-degree seal, while bayonet-style hangers help maintain proper pipe alignment under high vibration and heat conditions. The included 304 stainless steel double-wall angle-cut resonated tips provide a finished appearance and help refine exhaust sound.
