Hi all
what is the best route to go ? i have a decat down pipe . but also today ive picked up a full miltek turbo back system with sports cat and non res middle section . cant make my mind up what to do performance wise which one would be he best ?
cheers for you input
-
The decat would give more power. I did back to back dyno's with my Milltek system before and after the decat and it released another 4.5bhp by having no cat :happy2:
-
humm no loss of lower down torque ? ill be using it with bluefin stage 2 need to deside as i will sell the one i dont use lol

I gained 4.5lbft too, but the torque came in a little later. I can live with that with the amount I have (see sig!)
-
dont think about it as a loss of low down torque,
tat can be a positive thing, with a little less torque you can expect to have more traction which can onlybe a good point.

Did you leave it decat ? or with cat ?

Thanks

The decatted 3 inch downpipes can be had for £170 or so brand new off of ebay, so I would say yours should be worth £120-£130 roughly.

How come you took it off chris, will it make any difference a stage 1 car? Does it change the exhaust note much?
