Before....



the sound of the grinder is hurting my ears   :scared: poor milly!

Two bolt flange on the turbo side of the cat and using the existing slot/sleave
connection to the mid section.

Cutting away the little triangle bracket on the underside of the cat toallow swapping.

Watch this space ;)

i got mike to ask them if they could decat the standard downpipe, and they can do it for the same price.  £95 for a switchable decat exhaust.  Sound like a good mod to me

initial reports very happy :)

feels like a great improvement for £95 £110.  It cost more than quoted, I can only assume because of having to angle grind off a bit of metal off.

Feels to pick up quicker and is louder on boost. Didn't manage to get a pic will see if I can get one after doing the shopping :)

Not sure what caused it but after a short journey, noticed engine management light was lit  :sad:

Turned engine off, did what i think is aprs fault code erase on the cruise stalk, turned engine over and it was gone.

Ill keep an eye on it.  Any one else had it?  I thought stage2+ code got rid of EML  lighting?  :confused:
