Rear tips, no bumper mods



I notice thats yours is a 500e so my pipes don't need to be as big if I went that route. All I was able to find was this link on ebay for a cat, good size to go with?

Oh, yes, that is correct a 6 cyl won't require the size of pipe or cat that I used.

You can go to Magaflows site and put in your specifics and they will tell you what part to use. I don't have any experience with Catco products, personally I would stil with main stream products, like Magaflow or something equilivant.

If you want the best performance and power increase go with the latest technology, either the Random Technology or better yet the Magnaflow knockoff...

I gained a little over 10HP on a load dyno with twin Magnaflow spun metals over a stock SL500 two in/two out converter...not to mention that I rattled the bricks in two stock converters on the dyno, but the spun metal still fine after two years. Just passed my state emissions with no problem !
