Changed a catted downpipe

fung0001 · 10-24-2015, 11:37 PM

Hi
Mine is a basic 520 with hartge box
I ve changed my stock down pipe to catted one (ER)

The improvement is well recieved but i find that the oil consumption also increase

It seems that more power is obtained when running in highway but more oil is consumed during idling / low speed traffic condition

Anyone can explain it and any ways to improve? Thx

Its probably because you are now driving more aggressively
