Tempted to get these new ones but I was going to have them powder coated gloss black and would lose the nice RPI logo.

Hi guys, I thought I'd chime in...

So my current exhaust set up includes the RPI headers with a full Dinan exhaust, including the racing midpipes. Oh, and Dinan Stage 2 tune.

So lovin' the nastiness of the system, I'm like a menace everywhere I drive the E60. Just wicked!!!

After I got the RPI headers installed, everything ran fine with no check engine light whatsoever for a few months. Then out of the blue, the CEL came one with the message "Increased Emissions" on my iDrive screen. I'm assuming that I need to get another tune to properly work with my catless set up right? Also, I think my car is due for smog in February. I have no issue putting back the cat section of the headers and even putting back my stock section 1 & 2. But my question would be...will it wreak havoc on my car's systems if I put back all 4 cats while running a new tune meant for a catless set up? Coz for smogging, the CEL can't be on at all or else they'll fail me.

Has anyone encountered this situation before?

BTW, heading to SF for Thanksgiving and I usually stop at Dinan to do some xmas shopping. Those damned web banners showing they have a 15% off sale until Oct. 31 make me think that Gustav and/or the marketing guys at Dinan have a sick, masochistic and demented way of torturing me.

Don't have the answer to your questions but I think Dinan can tell you and hopefully update your tune to account for the catless system.

BTW, when are you driving up? Wonder if we'd have time to meet up for lunch or something.
