decat?

Post by JG22-VXR »

thinking off a decat, just wondering if it will make much difference? i have 1.4 sport with a powerbox, 4 branch & straight thru centre pipe n back box. how loud would it be if i took out cat n had straight through to the backbox? dont wont it to be crazily loud lol, also seen like a decat pipe but has a silencer in place of cat, would this be a better option you think? thanks guys
PVS 2011 was the best!

Yes it would be pretty loud well how loud depends on how much you press that pedal lol and you can get a sports cat which is a decat but iirc it also works as a cat and will pass a MOT but makes it sound like it has no cat and as for the power gains yes you may get some but not a lot as it just free the air going out so really you need something bringing air in quick to see the gains.
If in doubt, flat out
