I have been working on my exhaust lately and was told that I can empty my stock catalytic converter and will serve the same purpose as a downpipe.. It really didn't make any sense at first but then dug more into it and it seems pretty legit.. What differentiates a 500$ ER downpipe from an emptied Catalytic Converter? i just buy a 150 us cheap cat on eBay'

Could you do a quick short on how to lift the engine from the passenger side engine mount to install the OEM cats back up? Was about to get a DP myself but what you just said discouraged me in case I need to put the OEM back on :(.

You'll probably get downstream O2 codes. I'm not sure how that's handled on the F8x platform.

@ShopLifeTV 2 жыл бұрын

Yes it will. You will get cat efficiency codes, which can be solved with a simple tune. We won't be tuning our F80 until we address the crank hub issue, then we can give the s55 all the boost lol Thanks man!

@chriswyc3503 11 ай бұрын

Hey great video! I’m wondering if there is a big difference compared to putting the stock downpipes back in? I had a shop put the aftermarket one for me for around $400. And couple years later I want to have the stock exhaust back on and went to a different shop because i have moved and they quoted me $1100 to put the stock one in. They said it’s way more difficult to change it to stock and they basically need to “rebuilt” the whole exhaust. Is that the case?

@davidl7125 11 ай бұрын

If it's just downpipe, it should be a direct fit like the video. The only thing I can think of for quoting that price is if you were replacing your o2 sensors.

Anyone have personal knowledge of resonated catless downpipes for the s55 vs a regular catless downpipe? Do these little 4 inch resonators do anything for the sound? Basically is it worth it for me to buy new resonated downpipes and pay for a new install?
