My first post on here so be gentle, I have an n55 engined 135i convertible, I think you guys call that an e88? I've already had a small remap and forge Intercooler fitted, I'm now looking for a sports cat as my next mod but after hours of searching the net I've yet to find anything that looks like my cat does on real oem ?? Any advice thanks in advance

Welcome mate y not get a decat instead. Then here that turbo spool nicely plus gain some more ponies.

I need the car to pass an mot and not show any engine management lights that would do my head in looking at that every time I drive it

Bump
Can anybody please tell me if a decat will still pass the mot, and not throw up any engine lights?
Thanks

I'd expect an EML and iffy on the MOT. Might get away with it if your exhaust pipe's big enough.

Could DMS map the light out for you?

Highly unlikely that it would pass a straight test...after all, cars fail MOTs on dying CATs.

Ok thanks guys dms could probably map the light out but it wouldn't be cheap as it's an Ecu out job again, looks like it's back to the sports cat idea but which one for an n55 e88???

Great stuff thanks for the link, will that be eml free and pass the mot ta ??

Is it a worthwhile addition??

 

[marco_polo]

Should pass the MOT if it's up to temp, no promises on the EML.
