Catless downpipe for xdrive model.

Is there any differences in the installation between the xdrive and non-xdrive model? I'm debating if I should do it my self or take it to a shop.

Thanks in advanced.

I don't think there is a massive difference (i have xdrive) but its a bit of a PIA. I contemplated doing it myself but ended up taking it to a shop as it seemed cumbersome.

How much did the shop charge you if you don't mind me asking.

I'm actually up for inspection in a few weeks.. so I'll find out. But my reasoning for going with catted was to avoid having to remove it each time for inspection. From what I have read/heard, its a hit or miss with catted DP's.
