For those running catless downpipes...

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Hello Guys,

Would like to install catless downpipes and tune, but would like to know long how are you still liking your downpipes? And also is the noise increase maybe a bit much at wot or tolerable?

Thanks!
JC

Loving mine, I feel its exactly what it needed for that extra sound.
Not too obnoxious but you can make it burble if u want to, its great valves still in control comfort/sport and sport+ make it nicer

No lag, infact it has reduced lag now.
The bigger advantage is it spools faster now and perfect tone now

If you keep the secondary, you'll be good.

Not loud at all. I think it is the perfect amount w/o being obnoxious.

Car sounds really loud with just Resonator Delete and Secondary Delete, but with just Primary it's just perfect.

Did you guys just code out o2 with the tune or did you use an O2 anti-fouler?
