Guys I have a problem. As some of you know Ive just part ex'd my 99 S reg 840ci sport for a 99 T. The car handles beautiful however the cats are on their last leg. The dealer fefuses to replace with new geniune parts and I have declined pattern parts.
The cats will set me back a whopping £1100 pounds excluding labour.
I dont really want to spend this kind of money on replacing cats right now howver was wondering if it would make a difference for the worse if I removed the cats altogether.??
Some of you in the past have said that the car was faster without the cats giving better performance but will this harm the engine in the long run??
Also If im going to spend this kind of money I'd rather replace it with a custom exhaust system. Could anyone reccomend any exhaust names/company ie schhitzner, dinan. etc etc
Finally Im trying to get the dealer to swap over my old cats from my previous 840.
All advice appreciated esspecially from tony UK
Thanks
