Removing cat

[ZenithalRavage]

Hello!
I posted a question on removing the cat from an S2 but seem to get no reply. As the RS2 and S2 have the same engine and this RS2 section seems to have more viewers, I took the liberty of posting my question here too (hope you admins don't mind )
If there's anyone who can shed some light on this cat business please see my original post

If I take the Cat off, willi get more power on my RS2 1994?

No, unless you map the car & replace the whole exhaust system with an aftermarket sports job. Its a metal mesh sports cat in the first place unlike the S2 ceramic cat.

it will improve flow and sound though,will certainly help the engine breathe better

[alastairg]

Its a wire mesh & will not improve power without other mods.
