Description
The Evolution Racewerks Sports Series Resonated Mid Pipes are engineered to increase exhaust flow, improve throttle response, and enhance torque delivery for the S58-powered 2020+ BMW X3M and X4M. These mid pipes replace the restrictive factory resonators with high-flow resonated units designed to maintain a refined, near-OEM exhaust tone while unlocking measurable performance gains.
Manufactured entirely in-house in the USA, these mid pipes utilize mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing, precision CNC-machined flanges, and TIG-welded construction for maximum durability and perfect fit. Designed specifically for enthusiasts seeking better performance without excessive exhaust volume, this resonated setup offers the ideal balance between sound control and improved flow.

Performance Benefits
Turbocharged engines rely heavily on efficient exhaust flow. The factory resonators introduce turbulence and backpressure, limiting power potential and delaying turbo response. The Evolution Racewerks Sports Series Resonated Mid Pipes eliminate these restrictions with free-flow resonators and consistent mandrel-bent pipe diameter, resulting in:
- Higher horsepower capability
- Faster and stronger torque delivery
- Quicker turbo spool
- Improved throttle response
- Reduced backpressure throughout the exhaust system
The resonated configuration keeps sound levels controlled, making it ideal for daily driving or for vehicles already equipped with aggressive aftermarket components.
H-Style Crossover Design
Evolution Racewerks integrates an H-pipe crossover, chosen after extensive testing comparing H-style and X-style layouts on the S58 platform. The H-crossover provides:
- Reduced interior drone
- Smoother exhaust pressure equalization
- Better low-end torque characteristics
- A refined, balanced exhaust tone
BMW’s factory mid pipe also uses an H-style crossover, confirming it as the optimal design choice for overall drivability and sound quality.
Premium Construction
These mid pipes are built from 304 stainless steel and mandrel-bent for consistent diameter throughout the system. Every weld is executed by in-house fabricators using TIG welding to ensure durability and clean craftsmanship. CNC-machined billet stainless flanges guarantee precise fitment and sealing. The factory bracket hanger is retained, laser-cut, and TIG welded in stainless steel for OEM-style support. High-quality exhaust clamps connect the mid pipes to the rear muffler section.
