changing the downpipe will throw a check engine light but the car will drive normally. No limp mode or fuel codes, just a cat warning.

Remus Exhaust -

I went to purchase Remus Axel Back Exhaust for my G30. Got an email stating it was not for street use and track racing use only. Does that mean if installed the car would not pass emissions tests (live in Illinois, FYI). Thoughts? Or what should I consider. Warranty ends in Oct and looking to make a few mods, including this and a stage one tune. Appreciate any help.

The size of each Remus exhaust tip is 4" per tip.
Are there any emissions concerns when installing a cat back Remus exhaust??

No emissions concerns related to cat-back system (or any other systems) install. In addition, my Remus cat-back exhaust system was installed at a local authorized BMW dealership. The only item that will impact the emission is a downpipe installation.

Depends on your state. If your state checks code only, you are good as this system does not trigger the check engine light.

Does anyone know why the exhaust valve cable doesnt reach the port on the Remus muffler? It's short by about a foot or so.

you need to remove the cable from it's factory location, off a few clips and route it towards the new location, assuming you have a g30

It seems the valve itself opens opposite of the actuator. Are you supposed to reuse the factory one, or should Remus send a replacement with the exhaust?

You re-use your stock valve actuator with the newly supplied valve spring from Remus
