GCC Spec Cars - OPF or no OPF?

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I've ordered a R44 Exhaust system for my Middle East/GCC Spec G82 without OPF. Just wanted a double confirmation on whether anyone here can confirm for sure we have no OPF?

I've checked under my car and there seems to be no OPF - looks different from UK version, with a resonator instead of the OPF pipes.

Attaching a picture of the underbelly.



Thanks!!

Yeah if that's your actual car in the photo, you definitely DON'T have OPFs. Enjoy!

No worries. I've attached what it would look like if you had OPFs (like what we have in the UK).

The EU exhaust with OPF has two cats on each side?

Is there any Mid pipe option that deletes secondary cats and OPFs only for EU cars?

Exactly what I saw in R44's installation video and made the decision. I was wondering cos' GCC spec cars are always a strange mix of OPF & non-OPF cars, so had to make sure.

Also the R44 sounds amazing - I already have a Daehler valve controller installed, haven't seen anyone with a mix of the two yet so hopefully it works well
