Just received my cat. Shes a beauty. wont post anything til its installed. Prob just gonna put together a video.
In all honesty from most people how long should the install take my a professional shop. I know the average joe with enough toools might take a while but how about a bmw shop.

We budget for about 2 hours here for installation but then again we've done so many of them we have it down to a science. I would budget for about 2-3 hours - that should be fair. |

Ill get some videos posted up within a week. its non stop rain over here in California.
Initial thoughts and review of the hi speed cat and muffler delete install. Throttle response feels slightly better, and there feels like a bucket of more power to be had at 60-80% WOT. I havent let her rip yet but i want to get to sonoma drag raceway in a week or so. Muffler Delete. Well its kinda funny actually, because I didnt realize how much louder this is than in videos. It sounds like a beast during a cold start, and in bumper to bumper traffic drone and loudness is fine. City driving seems ok except in slow traffic there is a little drone, thus some vibrations but it isnt insane. Highway from 60-80 mph is actually not that loud, and i havent heard any drone. perhaps something to do with the 8 speed and where the rpms fall. Zero complaints there. When you get off the gas before the car upshifts it sounds amazing. I ordered the larger carbon fiber tips, and they look amazing on the car. really gives the car a more sport/aggressive look on BSM. Probably on any color you have.

This is really a great set up. I wish the weather was not so shitty so I could get a video up. But you don't need one to enjoy the sport cat. Finally opened her up. For me it's like going from stock to stage 1 to stage 2 to now sport cat. Damn tires keep spinning lol

Another review of the FabSpeed Sport CAT for those who are on the fence!
1- I would like to thank Bobby! The order was placed and shipment received within 3 weeks to Canada!!! Great communication and Fantastic customer service! 2- For those who look for power with no CEL, this is it! I was very skeptical of the "power gain" although with no dyno to prove my point, the car revs faster, and when I go 50%-80% throttle in sport mood, boost felt like it hits faster and harder. The car puts me in my seat much more than before. 3- I have the Stock Muffler with the Sport cat, there were not much reviews on line I could find about this set up... so I guess I can be the first to fully review the sound with Stock cat... I tried to limit my budget for the exhaust system, so I wanted to find something for sound and power gain as a package... after making much decision between MPE or a Sport cat (only 1500~cad to spend...so its one or the other). Under the much reviewed MPE + Sport CAT set up… most say it really is the missing link and make the car scream much more with MPE, I was hoping it would do abit more for the stock exhaust… in comfort mood… or any mood… I don’t hear much of a change in the exhaust note… if stock exhaust is 60dB then Stock Exhaust + Sport cat is maybe 65dB … you knida know its there.. but not really. One thing I noticed abit more is the “overrun” crackle and pop, revving at idle (I have auto trans) is abit louder, not by much, maybe 15dB more… and when you slow down after driving there is abit more pop sound from the exhaust but still not much… 4- build quality and ease of install is A++++++++, the build quality is amazing, perfect fit. Install time took me 1hr 45min on the floor of my driveway on a sunny day taking my time. 5-over all conclusion. Due to exchange rate so crappy for Canadians, I want to thank Bobby for hooking me up with discount. if you want performance this down pipe is a must, if you want sound and on a budget…then I suggest you go with MPE or Fabspeed muffler delete… I guess if you run stock muffler and just get a Downpipe, it won’t make your car sound like you have an expensive mod… but all in all I like it, its icing on the cake, the cake is amazing already, just that much better with icing… |

Hi interested in the Muffler Bypass Exhaust System on it's own as i fear the Sports Cat could ruin any long journeys I plan to make in my F22.
What would shipping be to the UK What would the best price available on the Muffler Bypass Exhaust System and just for interest what would be the best price for both the Exhaust and the sports cat? Cheers |
