Hey Scryer, hey you got your opinion so that's cool, but hey it's my car and I can do what I want you know.

Plus look at my signature. I drive a GT3RS that I track. And if you knew me, I have serious MOD issues and can never leave cars stock

Keep in mind, I ain't doing suspension or anything to the car, I'm just adding more power/sound to my cruiser. What's the difference adding an exhaust to an M, AMG or any other car?

Thanks.

To some extent this is true but understanding the exhaust design failures by Bentley that Fabspeed has corrected as exemplified in their video one can see that the Fabspeed system will definitely increase fuel mileage.

That's a plus for a Bentley.

Expecting track performance is a bit ridiculous I think.

thanks for the assistance.
I believe that Fabspeed said the 2ndary cat removal is not an issue as all sensing is at the primary cats up near the engine.

Thus, this type system should not (in theory) trigger CEL's. So, you should be ok.

Maybe Fabspeed can confirm this, however.

GCalo you are correct. Removing the second set of catalytic converters will not trigger the check engine light because only the primary catalytic converters are sensored. FredTTX as long as the quicksilver exhaust fits like OEM, our catbypass pipe setup should bolt directly to the mufflers.

Will post videos as soon as it's installed.

That's a very clever and well designed system you are making.

It makes good sense the way it is done.

Hmmm, maybe its time for a road trip. How long do you think I would have to stay in Fabspeed-land?

Sounds pretty good would like to hear with some sort of catback though.

I know you guys were looking for some Dyno results and I wanted to attach some with video of the car. Make sure to check http://www.fabspeed.com/Bentley.html for more information and look out for our writeup of this car. Dyno results show an increase of 130+ Horsepower and 300+ Ft. Lbs of Torque to the wheels with the full exhaust and ECU tune. Remember this was a custom tune and was done specifically for this car for the Gumball 3000. This car is one of a kind and will have a writeup in the Luxury Auto Magazine in a month or so. Email or PM me if you have any questions.
