Catalytic converters RS6

Post by alangjones » Mon Jun 08, 2009 11:22 am

Has anyone removed the cat completely. Any problems. Apart from Miltek anyone fitted any other cat. 100 cell or 200 cell. Would removing make the car sound like a PROPER V8. :? My old 3000cc V8 Stag sounded better than the RS. Has anyone any ideas or advice :?: What costs etc. Is it easy. What about the Lambda Sensors
Cheers

100 cell metal

I would not go with out the catalytic converter. It might cause more problems than benefits.

How do you deal with the second lambda sensor ?
