So any chance for catted UEL Headers?
 
Since there is no chance for me to get a non-catted UEL header past emission tests in Germany :thumbdown: , I'm wondering if there is a catted UEL header in development.

Any infos on that one? :bow:

Would also be interested in this if anyone has an answer :)

just swap the stock header back when its inspection time! lol

I don't think the design allows room for a catted UEL header.

Yeah and every time I get into a traffic control, I'll just slide under the car, and swap the header while the policeman/lady checks my driver's license. :happy0180:

Sorry but that's not an option. :iono:

Why dont you go for an uncatted header and a catted front pipe?

ML 06-10-2013 05:30 PM

hahhah silly germans. Do the police there really check your headers when you get pulled over? (I was and still am joking)

Well unfortunately they are. If the exhaust is to loud or looks suspicous they're going to ask for documents which are necessary for almost every mod. Some mods have to be registered at the technical control board, others just need documents from the manufacturer. :bonk:

Headers have to be registered at the technical control board, since they have a huge influence on sound and exhaust emissions as well as a little effect on power. :barf:

So yeah - we're fu**ed.

^ that's nuts. I would be pulled over for sure.

I don't know if thats possible/enough. As far as I'm concerned the OEM header is catted and a 2nd cat is in the OEM front-pipe. Am I right? :help:

Yeah - makes me kinda wanna live in the states... :sigh:


Interesting sidenote: it seems that the FT86club forum uses the same smile set I know from another german forum (nissanboard.de). At least the "respect" smile, uses the german notation ("Respekt").

Would it be possible to get a Cat less header and a double cat front pipe?
