F25 N55 X3 Catalytic Delete
Hi All,
I plan on gutting the catalytic or installing a downpipie soon in anticipation of getting the Bootmod3. In the interim without the Bootmod3, aside from it triggering the check engine light, is there anything else I need to worry about? Will the DME make any changes or reduce power in anyway? Thanks, Roy |

Roy, I would buy both together. I currently have BM3 uninstalled on my x3 because it was in for service. Trans acts a little rough in under medium throttle conditions because it gets confused with the high flow downpipe and the noise that the turbo makes before it spools up is incredibly annoying.

When I stop seeing diesel trucks, passenger and commercial, stop spewing black smoke out their tailpipes then maybe I'll worry about what's coming out of mine.

Quick question, tried searching but couldn't find a definite answer.
Is there a full delete kit available for the 2.0L diesels or are the parts interchangeable between the 3.0L and the 2.0L? Is there a thread somewhere that I could find the information? Thanks in advance, and sorry if this has been covered a billion times. |

I ran around with only my racechip and had no ill side effects what so ever. I now have a the bootmod3 flash and love it. This is a great free mod. Also the cat has two separate cells you could knock the post secondary 02 and still keep the pre secondary 02 cell for a free high flow cat! I have a couple of pics showing this but I am getting an error message when trying to upload the pics Thanks again E90705 for clueing me into the app!!! Pics below |

Exhaust note is great. It got a tiny bit louder in a good way, but I have absolutely no drone.
I have the rest of the exhaust stock for moment. The only change was disconnecting the line to to exhaust flap in the back so it is open all the time.
