Looking for Max Power at an Affordable Price?  Get These At the Best Pricing Ever!

S54 headers are a very popular upgrade. It was important to us that the requests for an affordable header with tech support and dyno results were heard. We found a manufacture in Asia who can keep quality high and cost low so we can now be competitive in this highly sought after price range... What we didn't expect was our feedback for tweeks to go this far. These headers are the very same we use on our 400-500 HP S54 engines because they work!

This header gives you real kick-in the seat power at a great price! When we say that these make absolutely great power, the best we have ever tested, we mean it- even beating out all the Supersprint headers in our tests! We were surprised and thrilled with these results. This set also resist cracking very well, as tested on our race cars.
 

Sold as a complete set to fit the '01-06 E46 M3, & 2001 Z3M vehicles

  • These affordable headers offer:

  • Best power figures of any we have tested! Even beating the far more expensive 'name brands'!
  • Fit is above average in this price range
  • Custom location of O2 sensor bungs for proper clearance without extending wires
  • Elimination of cats for best flow
  • Thicker & more robust head flanges
  • Includes new exhaust manifold studs
  • Fit both the SMG and 6speed manual transmission cars
  • No need to pound the piping or cut the headers

     

S54 Header Comparison Chart

Agency Power - E46 M3 (S54) Performance Exhaust Header Good Average $ 899

Notes:
-Like all headers for the S54, on US spec cars these headers replace the factory header/cats and eliminate the stock pre-catalysts. It is important to know that this not a street legal modification. Steps need to be take to eliminate a 'check engine' light. Please contact us if you need more information.
-Includes new exhaust manifold studs required for installation.
-While fit is better than most budget S54 headers, we do recommend that all S54 headers have professional installation for best fit and reliability.

 

Feedback about S54 headers...
We often get asked about our experience with "Ebay headers" and it’s always been a roll of the dice.
When coming from sources that are not controlled, that simply blow out mass produced items to the lowest bidder, you don't know if your headers are going to be getting headers as "shown in the picture" or not.
Many S54 headers we have seen have awful O2 sensor fitment, or are impossible to install, and some don't even clear the floor of your car. About 1 in 8 properly fit when tested.
If we could sell you headers that worked perfectly for $300, we would be happy too... but until we find them, we recommend our confirmed choices above in each price range.
