Cool. You'd wonder why they bothered fitting one to an M3 seeing they reduce power and engine response.

It was optional on 325i, and was not fitted to all M3's as standard, only that later cars, M3's coming from Germany will have a cat though due to the regulations in Germany.

UK cars only required a CAT for the emissions from mid 92 onwards IIRC
