Hello fellow panamera turbo owners, I started modding my 2011 PTT starting with catless downpipes and resonator delete.
Instead of buying aftermarket downpipes I had a fabrication shop remove my factory downpipes, cut them open and remove the stock cats. They Tig welded the empty cans back together and reinstalled them.
As a youtuber I made a full video of the process, check it out.
I paid $1100 for everything including doing my oil change and installing my BMC filter

Awesome ! Did the shop want to face the liability of removing the cats, or did they have you sign something ? I'm also struggling with paying 1,500$ for catless downpipes in a county where we don't have annual emission inspections....

I paid about 1500 for custom catless downpipes but looks like you got a solid deal, I also did resonator delete and the sound is awesome at wide open throttle and basically stock driving under normal conditions
Looks like a solid option for you PTT owners! Now you need more meat on those wheels and not just the rubber bands . (BTW we met at Fabspeed, recall the oil top off after burnout videos)

So I never thought that far, but visually under the car it looks completely stock so no one would know

I also did the resonator delete as well, cold starts are vicious now. I agree under normal driving its close to stock in the cabin.

What's going on man, thanks again for the oil. I am about to put my stocks back on with a set of toyo 888r tires. After I do the tune and plenum I am going for 10s before it gets too cold.

Not a whole lot, 10s in a full weighted PTT?...let's go! Any tune?

Are you planning to visit a drag strip or use a timer like the Dragy? I'm a fellow NJ PTT owner with similar mods and I'd love to see a 10 second run!
