Default decat with a z4

can anyone tell me wether i can put a decat downpipe on my v1-2 with a z4 ecu without any probs?. car is standard apart from sti panel filter. will the z4 be able to cope? or would i need the likes of a 'polar performance' type chip to make use of it?

thanks

il shall put the decat on and give it a try.
if i put a switch on j1 ready for a chip for the z4 am i right in thinking i should only change map while the ignition is off.
