Hey! Thats an RS 8.0 in the vid.
I have one just like it w/ a V1 header. Loving the current one. Should it ever fail I'll look into a replacement. I just can't justify spending another 700 after powdercoating for it otherwise. xD

Did you do it yourself or did a professional do it for you?

Grey was stock looking. I wasn't trying for "flashy" lol. Also I think the coating helps muffle the sound a little bit which is perfect for me. I wanted the performance without the loud side-effects or a bad exhaust tone. The final tone is actually really awesome.
Thinking of getting a performance S-pipe to complete a full exhaust set-up. Might get that one coated as well. Not certain yet.

I tried to post on this thread for the past 2 days about 20 times...............
Anyway, cat's definition....easiest this way is this:
A catalytic converter is a vehicle emissions control device which converts toxic byproducts of combustion in the exhaust of an internal combustion engine to less toxic substances by way of catalysed chemical reactions. The specific reactions vary with the type of catalyst installed. Most present-day vehicles that run on gasoline are fitted with a “three way” converter, so named because it converts the three main pollutants in automobile exhaust: carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbon and oxides of nitrogen. The first two undergo catalytic combustion and the last is reduced back to nitrogen.[1]
