So I brought off Seaneb on here his Milltek resonated middle section and have had it fitted and paired up with a 3" rear section all done by my friends over at Leadfoot racing @Thruxton using the stock tips.
I gotta say I'm pretty happy with it she looks stock but absolutely love the noise
Before standard
New system
Next is to get the pre cats out

That sounds awesome, but removing pre-cats and gutting the main cats will take it to a completely new level altogether (but it'll need a remap). If you want to stay legal then no pre-cats and Milltek 100 cell main cats sounds almost exactly the same (but it'll still need a remap).

I was going to only take pre cats out and leave main cats in

Removing the pre-cats will generate a CEL unless the ECU is told to ignore the newly redundant lambdas. The remap will sort this as well as taking advantage of the new hardware

Yeah I was only going to take the pre cats out just before heading up to MRC for a remap and ITG filters

May as well gut the mains while you are doing it surely? The remap will cost the same but it will make a significant difference to performance and sound. All you will need then is a friendly MOTer.

But it'll take a lot more for it to sound like this:

To be fair she's currently just about perfect, I'm worried the pre cat removal will be to loud, it is after all the family car, the loud bat sh*t crazy machine is my skyline so trying to keep this car a bit more sensible and classy lmao
