2014 bmw m6 sports 200 cell cat

Hello
I’m new to the forum. So Hello everyone.

I’m looking for help if like to get a sports 200 cell cat for my m6 however can’t seem to find any sound clips etc.
does anyone have one?

I would go catless but due to restrictions on emissions etc it’s not ideal.

Thanks
Ali

CTS Turbo makes a high flow 200 cell cats for the M6. Here the link to the cats, there $700 and I believe free shipping.

Interested if anyone has personal experience with these as far as fitment and overall quality is concerned -- curious why they are 1/3rd the price of most other High-Flow catted DP's. I've never seen high flow cats this cheap. If they're legit, it would be a great buy

I have AMS Downpipes with Cats and the cats failed on these. I am in the process of replacing them and am leaning towards Capristo.

I believe there is an issue with tuning, high heat, and conventional "race cats" simply taking on too much heat in the S63 configuration. I think it is important to have castings for durability on these motors and the ones picture appear to be all welded stainless piping.

AMS is a quality company but I think this platform poses unique challenges and I would too like to know what success stories there are out there regarding high flow cats and tuned M6s.

Great questions above. I think I saw a YouTube video where they installed CTS turbo cats on an M6 and then dyno'd it, not sure if it spoke on longevity and durability.

Ive had the 200cell CTS downpipes on my m6gc comp for about 5 k miles.

I didn't install it but my Indy had no problems with it

There is a mild smell at idle but nothing too bad (wife and kids haven't noticed)

No check engine light was on before I got the tune as well

My tuner did not code for CEL delete at my request and it has yet to come on.

It sounds pretty good. I have comp exhaust which was eh o-k but since I've installed the downpipes there is a very noticeable difference. I love it I get thumbs up and compliments everywhere.

I was on the fence on getting a meister/ Eisenmann and while the sound is not on par with these, this is definitely enough to hold me over

My wife would complain about cold starts after I put on the dps before I coded it out.

I can try to get a sound clip but it probably wouldn't do it justice since it would be through the iPhone.

Hi it would be great if you could please send me a sound clip or upload one.

I'm in the UK so I'm finding it hard to get CTS
But can get some 200cell variants which I sure would be similar

But want to see do you get:

Turbo spoll sound?

Crackles?

And upshift crackles?


All these are what I want/hope for. Ofcourse I know I can get this with the decat with is 1/5 of the price nearly but I have the legality issue

Thanks
Ali

Hey yea I'll try this week.

Yea there's a nice spool I can hear. Sounds great with the windows down and even better in tunnels.

It crackles a bit but not too much honestly. Kind of like an amplified version of what the comp exhaust does

down shifts are great tho, definitely can get some crackles. I honestly haven't herd it with upshift but I've passed ppl in tunnels and they've confirmed it does crackle/ burble. I didn't get a burble tune btw as this is my daily

Thanks for the feedback on these - would also be interested in some sort of sound clip when you have the time

For coding out the cold start idle, how did you go about doing this? I know it is possible with tuning, but I'm not running any tune at the moment and I'm wondering if it's possible to do without buying a tune
