...as the catalyst was knackered and sounded like a bag of bolts! F*ck me it's loud, but it seems to be bit faster and idle better. Altho it doesn't seem to have as much low down torque, is this a common trait of de-cats?

not noticed any lack of power when i fitted a decat mate. Just a big smile when it went quicker !!!!

are u now on a decat and cat back performance exhaust ?

it will make it louder - but thats a good thing.

It's definitely faster 4k+ revs but just noticed not as much low down torque, maybe it's just me being paranoid!

Yeah it's got a decat and cat back exhaust now mate, yeah it's loud and makes a funny rasping noise! Ha good stuff..... :D !!

The fella at demon tweeks also commented about how clean the car was which made me very happy!

losing a bit of low down is common with de-cats..........there aimed at producing power higher up the rev range .....so unless ur car spends time in these revs u wont really notice a diff :wink:

some decats are rigid and others you can vary the length and angle of the flanges
