hey Robin, I have the 2 pre cat sensors in, the posts are not installed, but tied up out of the way. I ran the car at the track this past weekend and brought my laptop with me along with my Auto Enginuity program and after 200 miles no codes (codes usually trip after 50 miles) so........? I checked the vitals while running and all was well. I know Steve W. recommends re-flashing the computer but I'm not sure if that's a requirement of elevation or what? So far, my car has no issues.

Interesting....

So you the post-CAT 02 sensors are not connected? Or are they connected and the o2 sensor just exposed to the air?

Hi Chris,

When you get a chance can you pots a sound clip of the cat bypass pipe and your silencers combined as I'd like to chack that out. I like the deep sound of your silencers.

Cheers,

David

Chris: I have sent you payment for the cat bypasses. Please see the link in my email to help me decipher which flanges I have. I think Bischoff. They are the flat sided trianle with the oval pipe.
ADAM
P.S. Removed the undertray....thanks for the tips guys!

There is the sound clip already of the "cups" with the factory cat.....have you heard it? Now just imagine that sound but LOUDER. I put the factory muffs back on because I do alot of in town driving and for me the bypasses with the "cups" are just to loud. I spend most of my day on the phone and its just impossible to hear. Now for the track it would be perfect. The bypasses with the factory muffs is a little quieter than I'd like so the "cups" with the bypasses would be perfect for track use.

I've got a complete, like-new Fabspeed cat-bypass setup if you can stand the look--it is loud, resonates like hell at low rpms, fits ok, is loud, one bypass pipe hsngs below the other, and is loud.

HA! SO guys, I bought Robin's RSRs and a set of Chris' new Cat Bypass X-pipes. THE RSR's get here tomorrow and then I will install the Cat Bypasses whent hey are done being fabbed...hopefully less than 2 weeks from now! THEN the car goes in the shop to have the RUF bumpers painted, as well as the RUF A-pillar treatments, and perhaps shave the Headlight washers. The car will be AMAZING! I am SO excited!
