Exhaust Tips

[Bmt134]

Why are so many people getting 89mm outlet round tips when 105mm oval tips fit without trimming?

Anyone have a link that they’ve recently received an order from? I just had to cancel mine. Seller kept telling me “just a few more days to ship”... I don’t think I’ll ever get them.

Same here. Anyone have a good source for tips? Looking for round, black or CF, with the blue lip. Ordered a set of Ali a month ago, supposed to ship last Friday, and now it says they'll ship in 13 days. No response from vendor after three messages.

Hey guys,
Can I ask who your sellers were?
I just placed an order on Ali Express so I am hoping that I will be getting mine next month.

Aesthetics. The round tips look more aggressive and provide a different look.

And trimming sounds quite involved. I filed a bit on top and bottom with a metal file until they fit and that’s all it took.

That’s all the trimming you needed to fit the round 89mm tips? Please provide a pic. Are these connected to and aftermarket exhaust?

I agree that I like the look of round better.

Am I to understand that for the Borla exhaust I would need the 63x89 tips?

 

[ryan1stinger]

If you’re going round the 51x89 should fit.

AKsports Store

Originally ordered on February 10th and it said at that time about a four week waiting period until it shipped. That time frame came and went, nothing, now I'm at nine days until supposed shipment. Vendor really sucks at communication. Finally got a hold of him and he informed me that this second estimated ship date is most likely BS as well.

I can't find them anywhere else so I'm keeping my order open until I find it somewhere else.

Guys, check Amazon. I just got mine on Prime 2 weeks ago.

The ones I ordered did not show the Akrapovic name on the tips, however when they arrived it was there (bonus!). Just search 63mm 89mm exhaust tips, or whatever the desired size is.

 

[Metalmania82]

Looks like same issue with shipping, for 57mm X 89mm with or without blue tip. Expected delivery 4/3-4/2x.
I'm gonna see if oval ones are any more available than the round ones.

I’ve had both the round and the oval tips on my MBRP exhaust. It’s really just trial and error to get the round ones in. Shave a bit of the diffuser on inner edge top and bottom as that is where the round tips bind. Keep shaving until they fit.

Here are photos of each installed. I don’t have any of the opening prior to install.

 

[ryan1stinger]

Thanks. It’s seems like you would have to shave a lot to get the round to fit. Did you use a dremel?

The reason I'm requesting pics is because I took my car to an auto body shop yesterday (I have the round 51X89mm Akrapovic tips) and they said it looks like the lower half of the diffuser would need to be removed to accommodate. They are seeing what can be done and will be getting back to me. I'm wanting to attach these tips to the tail pipe to extend the exhaust behind the diffuser to reduce drone as well. I want to make room for movement of the tips given that they will be connected directly to the tail pipes of the Borla exhaust and there will be some movement of the exhaust over rough roads and bumps. You mentioned the tip fit is very snug with minimal trimming of the diffuser, and my concern with that is that rubbing, vibration, sound may occur between the tip and the diffuser. Please report back if you run into this.

Did you attach these tips to the diffuser using a bracket similar to what is attached to the OEM tips? In regards to your MBPR tail pipes were the centered within the OEM tips prior to installing the Akrapovic tips? The reason I ask is because my Borla tips cannot be centered given the distance between the tail pipes and the distance between the OEM tips, therefore this will require additional trimming of the diffuser to make them fit. I like the look of the round better than the oval, however the oval are an exact match, so I may go that route. The downside with that, is I will need to order from China and with the Coronavirus causing massive delays with shipping I may not get these tips for months. Maybe I can get lucky and find a local seller.

there you go my friend, I had some post with them

did you get 51mm for which exhaust though ?

What’s the link

I cannot link from the amazon app on my phone.

Just literally type what I said in the above into the Amazon search bar

I have four 57mm-89mm round tips for sale in the classified section if anyone is interested. Could get them to you in a few days.

Anyone who plans to run their aftermarket exhaust with the secondary cat deletes (midpipes) i highly recommend going with the oval exhaust tips rather than the round ones. I recently swapped round for oval and all of the rasp I was getting on cold starts is now completely gone.

I think the lack of secondaries causes more shake in the exhaust and if you have the round tips installed that are tight in the diffuser, this creates vibration as the tips shake inside the diffuser which creates a raspy metallic sound. Some get it at certain RPM's, others at cold start (me).

I'm completely happy with my MBRP + SSR Midpipe setup now.

What size oval exhaust tips did you purchase?

54 in, 75 od & 105?

Awesome pics and great info. As with Borla I see your tips are attached to the tail pipes. Given how snug the tips fit and their connection to the exhaust, with the exhaust movement going over bumps or rough roads do you see any rubbing or hear any squelching noises from running or any other issues?

63 x 75 x 105

63 x 75 x 105

If I’m in the market for custom made exhaust tips any of those dimensions you would adjust after installing that set?

That’s about as large as you can go without trimming your diffuser.
