finally some noise! Secondary Cat delete!

mtlx5mcomp · 01-26-2021, 07:03 PM

if you have an X5M or X6M you need this done 100%%%%

had her done in about 3-4 hours

sounds much better but not over powering..

very happy would do it again in a second!

Thanks to Evolution Racewerks and RG sport !

3 hours it was done..

Can you please post a video of a cold start?
Any gas smell? I assume minimal if any since primaries are in place but my wife is very sensitive.

the smell is very minimal..
it is pretty loud on cold start but I can eliminate that when i do the tune..

Quick question, do you know if the dealer will give you any grief for deleting the secondary cat if the need for warranty work arises?

I talked with my SA he said typically they won't have any grief unless its a full downpipe replacement. This being the secondary all should be well. Keep in mind though (in the states) they have to prove the aftermarket part caused the damage, so with that in mind you do a turbo back system and a turbo blows you probably won't get warranty to cover.

Hoop · 01-29-2021, 08:45 PM

Cool, didn't think that it would be an issue, but it seems like manufactures are getting more and more stringent.

Oh the tittle said secondary, I assumed it was just the lower ones not the ones up by the turbo, but your saying to you did full downpipe no cat?

MrItaly · 01-30-2021, 02:12 PM

Was it a hard install?special tools or super tight spaces to work in? I'm thinking of mounting my own.
