The sound difference is amazing and the turbo spools is just fine music to my ears. |

I don't know about him. However, I used a can-bus delete that LEIB Engineering sells. G-Power also sells a similar product. It does require wiring, but once installed it is seamless and no CEL will show for the primaries being deleted.

I see the part I believe, do you just order it from their website from Germany ?

I am not sure if the G power can bus can be ordered from within the USA or not. From my experience, the LEIB Engineering module shipped out quickly on their end via DHL. However, customs on the east coast had it for nearly three weeks prior to releasing it to USPS for delivery. That was not the fault of LEIB. As far as product packaging the LEIB Engineering module was done correctly and sufficient. From an appearance standpoint the G Power unit does appear to be developed as a singular unit, whereas the LEIB Engineering is a two peice unit. However, the G Power unit is a few hundred dollars more. So you are indeed paying for that more streamline packaging of the unit. However, both units do the exact same thing. Installation is on paper straight forward, however LEIB Engineering directions are not very informative and their images are extremely basic. However, I have a video that I have yet to post on the wiring. Basically it is re-pinning multiple pins @ the fuse box on the inner passenger side foot well. I had some issues with the installation and unit however the customer service from LEIB was AMAZING and everything was resolved and I have had no further issues. Whenever I actually have time from work to breath. I do plan on doing a write up on here in regards to Can-bus deletes to resolve the issue of the CEL regarding primary cat delete vs other more intrusive tuning or cat converter intimidators. Let me know if you have anymore questions. |

NO. Getting any "cat-back exhaust" WILL NOT THROW ANY FORM OF CEL WHATSOEVER. YOU DO NOT ANY FORM OF CAN-BUS MODULE. SIMPLY REMOVE STOCK EXHAUST AND REPLACE. We should have a primary o2 and secondary o2... the primary would be on the down pipe, closet to the turbo...then the 2nd being at the CATS...so my assumption is the middle section would delete those causing the CEL THERE IS A 02 SENSOR BEFORE AND AFTER THE PRIMARY CATALYTIC CONVERTER, WHICH IS LOCATED ON THE FIRST PORTION OF THE DOWNPIPE. THERE IS NOTHING MONITORING THE EXHAUST GAS AFTER THE SECONDARY CATALYTIC CONVERTER WHICH IS THE SECOND PART OF THE DOWNPIPE. THAT IS WHY YOU CAN ALSO ELIMINATE THE SECONDARY CATALYTIC CONVERTER WITHOUT A CAN-BUS MODULE. Which one of these do you have? LEIB Engineering or G-Power make this module? OK NOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT. UNDERSTAND THAT AFTER INSTALLING YOUR NEW SHINY CAT-BACK EXHAUST AND ELIMINATING THE SECONDARY CATALYTIC CONVERTER, THERE IS STILL THE PRIMARY CATALYTIC CONVERTER DIRECTLY AFTER THE TURBO. IF YOU REMOVE THIS, THE CAR WILL DETECT THE VEHICLE'S CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS NOT OPERATING AS IT SHOULD AND WILL THROW A HARMLESS CEL TO LET YOU KNOW. THE WAY YOU TRULY ELIMINATE THIS CEL IS BY EITHER SENDING THE DME OVERSEAS TO BE CUSTOM TUNED OR A CAN BUS MODULE. USING ANYTHING ELSE IS A CRAP SHOOT. YOU CAN RUN EITHER THE LEIB OR THE GPOWER, BOTH WORK WITHOUT ISSUE. https://www.leib-engineering.de/leib...bmw-x5m-f95-de |
