Are Catted downpipes out yet?

Im currently uninterested in going with any of the catless options on the market since I wont be running a tune to clear the CEL.

Its been nearly a year since this car touched down stateside (the coupe) and Im still having trouble locating any catted options. Any help is appreciated!

are you comfortable with using whatever grade metal your shop decides to throw together? im sure theres a reason why aftermarket options are so much money, banging together any piece of bent metal is doable but id have to imagine its the quality of the pipe that makes it pricey.

would be my only hesitation

My shop used ceramic coated steel that is used on IPE system, I know it isn't the same quality as IPE but its just to hold it until I go stage 2

Paying 5k without install for basically no upgrade in sound, not worth IMO

agreed 1st part, cost seems exorbitant.

disagree 2nd part, downpipe is the single most effective mod to enhance sound in a turbocharged car. (catless being the most notable)

E63S ED1 Tuned + Wheels, new A45S on its way
Armytrix do 200 race Catted Downpipes with Ceramic coating. I think I paid about $3,500 AUD.

You would be best advised to go ahead with an ECU tune as that will unlock the additional power from the new downpipes and exhaust you have fitted. The engine mixture will be incorrect if do not do an ECU tune.

I've purchased catless 2 piece downpipes and plan on having new lower pieces manufactured with Gesi cats if the downpipes with the AWE Track Edition exhaust prove to be loud.
