[VIDEOS]INSTALLED - Just ordered 397$ catless downpipes
Will keep you all updated, but I just ordered them so I’ll keep u all updated
http://www.armmotorsports.com/BMW-F1...-tu-dp-550.htm Ordered on November 9 at 12:00 PM MST~ Shipped out on November 10 at 1:40 PM MST~ Delivered on within 3-4 days cant remember Update: Jacob over at ARM called me up and told me that these are slip ons, so they won’t fit early ‘11 550i’s, however, he did make up a suggestion saying “All that is required is to cut off the slip-on style flange and add the oem style flange.” so I’ll still be putting these on, however, the installation process will just be a bit different UPDATE: They’re in! The sound is INSANE and whistles are definitely there. Honestly, for some of you, it might be too loud, but if you want a roaring v8, then these are pretty good for the price. Install took about 5-6 hours, including cutting and welding to fit early 2011 version Install wasn’t too bad. Hardest part honestly was getting them to fit after cutting and welding Video later tonight VIDEOS: Downpipes: I am straight piped with an x. Looking to get rid of the x and just go completely straight very soon. Last edited by Lowkey F10; 12-09-2017 at 12:01 AM.. |

You will throw a CEL for sure. No way around out. Which is a deal breaker for me. Get something to clear the warning or put black tape over the light! I just ordered their intake so I'm pretty excited for more engine noise!
Let us know the cost for getting them installed! I'm hunting for a pair of used m5 cats. |

Installing a high-flow universal cats after DPs is an interesting idea, BUT will it catch smell? I'm not so sure Anyone has any experience or links about it? |

You will get a CEL, if you do a search people have tried everything. The only way of removing the CEL is with an o2 sim or by tuning (JB4 or Flash).. buy a cheap obd 2 scanner on eBay if you don't have either and clear the code.

Well, on the mechanic side, 0$ if you’re using oem flanges (if you’re cutting and welding rather than slipping on)
But if you’re paying a mechanic they prob wouldn’t take less than $500 to cut and weld and install. I paid cheaper than that, but every other mechanic tried charging me $500 Had my buddy do it who is certified as well for a lot cheaper If you were to just pay a shop to slip them on, it’d prob be like 100-250$ Or just do it yourself |

Honestly never heard of it or tried it. Had a 370z before this and never had the need to do any of that to eliminate a light. I’d just delete the code
