I got the Catted installed the same day I got the car and I love the way the car performs and sounds now.

Here's a little takeoff video clip my friend recorded and a picture of what the muffler looks like.

I added a photo of the muffler work.

I have a cel right now and I'm going to give it a few weeks before getting an o2 spacer. From what I've heard the DME adjusts to the DP after a few hundred miles and cel goes away, let's hope that's the case. Or else it's o2 spacer till BM3 comes out for 11.4 DME

Sounds pretty good! I was in the same boat but after a couple days of the CEL I spent $5 and installed a spacer (well 2 of them stacked) and the CEL went out the next day. All good ever since.

What spacers did you install, and did you have to remove the downpipe to do so? Thanks!

Here is my post and the video I used for the spacers. I bought 2 of the Dorman 42009 "non-foulers". No you don't have to remove the dp. I removed the air filter box which gave me enough access to remove the rear O2. I screwed all 3 pieces together (after drilling one of non-foulers out with a 1/2" bit per the video) on the work bench with anti-seize on all the threads then reinstalled.
