Catted Downpipes
Curious if anyone has installed a catted downpipe and what they think. I have been trying to decide between the ER and VRSF, big price difference and they seem to be a similar product.
I have jb4 and a dinan midpipe. I understand I will get more power from a downpipe but I really don't feel the need to make the car much louder, why I'm interested in a catted downpipe vs no cat. Any insight is always appreciated. |

I thought all after market downpipes were not street legal, is this true? I feel like everytime someone has posted about the catted downpipe they put on their BMr, and I ask if it is street legal, the response is NO, .... am I wrong?

I thought the CAT is in the downpipe, which then removing the original CAT, or in a sense displacing the CAT, which I believe in some states, would cause it to not be street legal, .... Like putting long tube headers on a vehicle, which displaces the CATs, making it no longer street legal, .... but, I must say, I am not 100% suer about any of that

installed today my wagner 200 cell hjs downpipe for my m240i , the car now sounds how it should be, when removing first the midpipe the sound increase was around 5% , but now with the downpipe i think 20% more. throttle respons ( changed my jb4 to map 2 ) is much better, car is running smooth , feeling the extra hp also

If you do not wish to spend $950 on the downpipe, get VRSF
