Since the catted 300cell, sportV2 and raceV2 section 1 are design to be used with the OEM x-pipe, will any of these mufflers work with the OEM X-pipe?

Some questions like these we will probably not know until people install them and run the tests. I barely passed california smog with 400 cell cats. I'm planning to get the 300 cell and seeing how it goes.

I have a question for people who have run 100 cell cats in the past. Does the car still have the straight pipe exhaust smell with the 100 cell cats or not??

I wish I was a tester. Maybe I should consider a career change.

Wow, looking good. Appears to be a well designed system, and sounds great in that clip! Can't wait to see pricing, maybe I'll get myself an X-Mass present. The car has been stock for 2 years now. It's unheard of for me to go THAT long in a car without going on a modding spree.

You're crazy. Just run only euro headers and nothing else. Wear ear plugs, though!

yeah really you're crazy. Headers and rpi mufflers caused so many rattles inside my car. It was also quite loud. Sounded sick but the rattles inside my car drove me to sell the rpi mufflers

Waiting patiently to see and hear clips for my choosen setup; i REALLY need DB figures for this setup also, also DKF can we please get the group buy up and running asap......

100 Cel Race cats,
xpipe
Sport Mufflers

im really hoping this will get me some of my engine note back and increase performance at the same time, i do feel the s54 doesnt perform its best with Decats in place... i may be wrong however and look forward to being corrected. Im nearly as excited about this as i was about my supercharger research, 1m, m3 gets Ackrapovic exahusts we get nothing, now youve came along and literally offered us our only proper option without having to wait for supersprints rediculous lead times, not to mention their cost also.

nearly 35k views on this topic, i for one will be buying one and i genuinely hope you earn a decent amount from this, its genuinely deserved...

DKF, can you talk to me about the clamps on this system, will these clamps ensure me a leak free system, im sure i read somewhere that these type of clamps seal even better as the system heats up.... Are you happy with the fitment of your sytem??

one last question, excuse me, is their anything else thats connected to the euro system cats that ISNT included in this system, like EGT bungs ect, i havent really inspected the euro cat section to closely but im guessing its just the 2 02 sensors and nothing else??

your nuts.......i cant lie, i will miss the true rip rorting nature of the rpi and it really wouldnt bother me to keep it, but the though of getting a slightly quieter system with true gains really tastes good...........

i just want to see these on customers cars ASAP, more importantly i want to see what CRFINE88 things when he bolts this upto his vt1 ess car, our alpha N management is very sensitive to change!! Placement on those sensors for me is vital, only time will tell, for you N/A guys, you dont have my issues...

villa, which setup on the exhaust side are you planning?? let me guess,

Decat front s section
Xpipe
RACE mufflers....

with the euro headers this will mean not one silencer in the system, this will be ear bleedingly loud and you will definatly get your flames !!!

an EGT bung is on the DKF S pipe... so that's all you'll need!

The money we make will be invested on doing new type parts.

The clamps are really nice, they fit fine and work great, no leaking.

The S-pipe have EGT bung
