Fell Off The X... :)
 

This big heavy thing fell off the X5 yesterday. I think it's the DPF? Car seems to run much better though. :)

Who pipe did you use and what tuning?

What about SCR system?i mean catalytic converter and urea injection?

The CAT somehow fell off too. DEF stuff is still there but the computer is reprogrammed not to inject it. Maybe all that stuff will fall off too one day.

Did you feel any difference in the exhaust noise? and did you have to send the DDE to reflash?

It's slightly louder than stock but I have an M6 with all 4 CATS off and all mufflers removed running straight pipes so a little noise doesn't bother me. Yes, the computer gets sent in to have it reprogrammed.

Thanks and keep us posted how it goes or if you face any problem.There must be increase in fuel economy as well.

I can already tell that there's a significant increase in MPG's just based on the computer read-out. The X feels 1000 pounds lighter just in how it reacts to any amount of throttle. THIS is what this engine was designed for, NOT be choked by a very restrictive medium immediately after the turbo. Currently have the stock muffler still on but am considering an aftermarket or no muffler. I'll start documenting everything including sound levels with different stages.

Of course this is intended for off-road use only.

If I pay for shipping would you send it to me? I'm working on something...
