However, that's impressive considering the exhaust flow is also being filtered while running through a pair of Active AFlow catalysts which are EPA registered. The power and performance is still there. We utilize the same method as the European models and provide a set of cables to allow the post cat O2 sensors to be placed in the section 1 after the Cats - this results in no CEL due to Cat efficiency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGone is the smell of unburnt fuel.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA BIG advantage.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGone is the RASP like sound.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnother BIG advantage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cstrong aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned and recommended for Off Road Use\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses EPA registered Active AFlow metallic exhaust catalysts for emission control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo unburnt fuel like smell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNO RASP like sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNO CEL due to Cat efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes O2 sensor extension cables for post Cat sensors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrushed Finish for that industrial appeal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstructed from 100% 304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUtilizes factory mounting points for easy bolt-on install\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo year warranty with Free Tech support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/5357\/files\/pdf-icon_small.png?1054\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Active Autowerke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42265560678562,"sku":"11-010","price":2255.35,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0527\/9953\/7314\/products\/11-010-2_8bc468cd-4880-4b54-aeb3-e481e89ecc23.jpg?v=1655024625","url":"https:\/\/broxtuning.ca\/products\/active-autowerke-section-1-with-gesi-g-sport-ultra-high-flow-cats-e46-m3","provider":"Brox Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
