BLine Cat Delete Pipes

[NBrock]

Really, really like looks/quality of these BLine pipes! I received exact same worded response as NBrock (post #23). I've never gone with a catless setup and concerns are maybe too much rasp and unburned gas smell for me. I don't know....

It's not quite apples to apples comparison...but on my 14 GT I went with a cat delete mid-pipe rather than getting rid of the resonators. It increased the volume substantially without giving it much rasp.

Just installed the cat deletes. Took almost a month to get them due to around 350 orders being placed according to Giancarlo Borrelli at B-Line. Super nice guy and confirmed the soon to be released B-Line damper weights for those of us that can't pull them off the stock cars.

The wait was worth it. Packaging for shipping was very good, construction is perfect. Perfect fit and it is a shame no one will ever see them. The are beautiful.

Warning: these coupled with the Borla Atak cat back is INSANE! No drone, but accelerating is super loud and deccelerating sounds like a mafia shoot out.

Plan is to get the Shelby on a dyno see where it is at and the do the proflex commander and dyno it again within 48 hours to see what the AFD system makes. Got a free extended warrenty from Ford and don't want to go the tune route just yet.

Now we need to get these guys to make an x-pipe to compliment their other work!!!

My car with just the ATAK clocked 116.3db at 25', so how much worse are we talking? Also, how is it with the valves shut?

Valves shut is pretty close to valve open with cats. Valves open not sure about db but it is as loud as you would expect this car to be with straight pipes. Considering having resonators installed on the Atak system but going to wait for now.

So I emailed BLine about them making an x-pipe/resonator delete pipe to compliment the cat delete pipes. They actually replied today and said that’s a product idea that’s actually come up several times in meetings already. They haven’t started anything on it yet, but maybe if we all bug the crap out of them!! Go email them now and request this product.

With 350 orders, you would think someone has a sound clip...sheesh

I have several sound clips on my Instagram @fp350 as stated earlier in this thread.

I just ordered there Hi-Flo cat version from B-line this week , Didn't want the smell but certainly looking for more sound . I'm running the Lethal X-pipe with stock mufflers.
Hopefully this gives me the additional sound I'm looking for

Awesome! Please report back with some video if possible!

I’m surprised there is not much of a mention of the New Gen2 Shifteck system. Looks to be build very well just as the other system, they almost look identical, same materials etc. but only cost $350. Anyone have a set of these? I’m ready to pull the trigger just torn between the two now.

Youre right but I don't have an Instagram account. I am just used to people putting the clip right on the thread, that's what I was looking for...shoulda been more specific

As someone mentioned previously, please post an update once you receive them and get installed. Your thoughts on fitment, quality, and sound. And any issues that have come up. I am on the fence now for these because my state has emissions testing. I am concerned about throwing codes as well. But mostly I am curious about the sound level increase and do they keep the unique Voodoo sound. Post a video too.

I am also in for the update on your thoughts with the hi flo cat version. I have cat delete pipes now and while I am good with how loud it is, it sounds a little too raspy around 2k and 3k.

I'm with Niz...would love to hear these in person with ATAK system! sound clips may give you some idea of tone, rasp, and some other things we discuss, but they do extremely little to give you an idea on volume and sound quality, IMO. I've never gotten anything from sound clips. I've compared with sound clips of guys with my exhaust and it gives me no indication as to what the car sounds like in person. I know sometimes it's all you have to go off of when shopping for something, but....

OK...back to our regularly scheduled program.

I was hoping more would chime in about the tuning aspect of these (and the impact of running these without a tune).

Running them without a tune is fine even if you get a check engine light as the only thing the rear 02s are there for is to make sure the cats are working. Check engine light comes on due to the rears seeing the same temp as the front. By adding the extensions the rears are taken out of the direct exhaust stream which should allow the temp difference to be enough to not trip the light. In the past, a tuner would simply turn off the rears so you wouldn't get the light anymore, but with recent changes, they are not supposed to be turning off any emissions items in the tune, so you would probably now need the extensions even with a "tune".
