Second decat pipes?

Post by SmokeyRS6 » Sat Jun 07, 2014 4:24 pm

Hi folks

I can't find anywhere that sells 2nd decat pipes? Looking for a set that could bolt on so the car could be put back to stock if need be?

Cheers

Smokey

The 2nd cats are welded to the downpipe. So no bolt on options, unless you buy the whole downpipes, modified......

You have three options and all requires cutting off the OEM cats.

1: Buy cat replacement pipes like Supersprint and use pipe reducers to fit to your OEM cat back exhaust.

2: Replace OEM cats with 100 or 200 cells race cats.

3: Have custom replacement pipes made to fit the OEM cat back exhaust.

You will still pass the MOT with all three options.
Too much power is barely enough.

What are you trying to achieve? If it's just a bit more noise then try taking out the front silencers on OEM exhaust with straight pipes just gives a little more noise. I'm more than happy with results.

This is the same as my set up.

Plus small back silencers.

Sounds unreal....although boomy at speed.

Pops and backfires are ace.
