Hey all,

Does anyone happen to know if MB ever officially made a trap bypass pipe for the W123 California models as part of their modification? I've heard conflicting information from two different MB dealer oldtimers. One said they did and that they then installed a catalyst inline in the front pipe under the passenger's side floor and the other guy said they just kept replacing the traps (or oxycats?) directly underneath the turbo. The '85 TD I just got still has the football-shaped trap under the turbo and, according to my local dealer, the recall has been done on this car. I want to eliminate this as a matter of future precaution and so far, the easiest way I've determined to do this is to swap over a complete federal setup. Thanks all for any input!
