Correct, the cats will have a 5" outside diameter with a tapered fit to the downpipe.

We will develop a software fix for the high flow and catless downpipes with ESS Tuning, that will be integrated into their performance software package. Preliminary testing of this software will occur in several weeks once the prototype downpipes are completed for our own F10 M5 project.

I believe the best way to check cross compatibility will be to test each piece individually. While the engines are very similar in their general architecture, they share very few parts from BMW. It is not possible to guarantee cross compatibility without trying the parts directly.
