Also, this won't fit a car with the pre-2011 cat configuration, which it sounds like you have? We do offer an XPipe center section which fits all the cars, and which a forum member tested independently and picked up 23ft/lbs of torque. Less HP but torque is what you'll feel on a road car.

Simple question with I hope a simple answer. On my 13 V8V I'm switching the secondary cats with straight pipes from Stewart. When you remove the original cats there is a stud attached to them. The new pipes don't have that stud. Should I just use another bolt?

papigko 04-09-2017 05:09 PM

I used a 5/16 x2" stainless steel bolt and nut if I'm not mistaken

Stuart@VelocityAP 04-09-2017 09:10 PM

M8 nuts and bolts. We normally include them?

deckman 04-10-2017 06:28 AM

Stuart you did include nuts and bolts, thank you. I asked because they are shorter than the existing studs.

I am trying to install the Velocity AP secondary cat delete pipes on my 2014 V8V. Has anyone figured out how to remove the bolts that attach the secondary cat to the headers? There are three of them and the they seem to be part of the unit as they don't have heads on them. I have attached a pic. Without being able to remove these bolts the secondary cat will not come off. Well, I guess I could remove the rest of the exhaust and move literally everything back. It just seems like these bolts should come out and then use the new bolts that came with the Velocity AP cat bypass pipe. There are six new bolts which matches the number connecting to the headers, so it seems like the old bolts should come out. Am I missing something here? I have attached a pic of the bolts in question.

Thanks for any help!

Hi Bob,

they aren’t bolts they are studs. You should be able to shift the rear part of the exhaust back enough to get it clear of the studs.

rconner v8v 04-08-2018 06:37 PM

Stuart, thanks for the super quick response. I thought that might be the case, but since there were six new bolts included I considered that maybe the existing were fitted bolts that were just frozen to the secondary cat and not studs.

I will get after moving the exhaust back to clear the studs.

Thanks again!

Bob

As Stuart said, these are press fit studs and they stay in place. You can manipulate the cats backwards and they will come off, there is no need to remove anymore of the exhaust.

rconner v8v 04-08-2018 06:42 PM

Thanks Dale, giving it a try now.

I would also be intersted in this product if it is not discontinued. Seems like a great solution for the 2011+ cars.
