There is no sense in the OPF or after to monitor emissions, I do not see how a cel is possible from this . A lot of times codes are thrown due to manipulation of exhaust valves.

North American cars do NOT have the filter. No sensors either.

well gents I can say removing that filter unleashes a F&$K TONNE of noise. Jeeezus. I think there is more power to be gained too with a potential tune. See below pics of the GPF filter material.

Good news. So, no codes or anything else out of the ordinary?

I'd also love to see a before and after dyno. Even without a tune, the engine should be producing more HP since those filters just look like they are suffocating the exhaust system.

Great!

I know based on my 718 Spyder where I did cat-back that the sound changes a lot and the torque too! So maybe a good option with my incoming 992 GT3.

How is the drone inside after taking them out?
