I did it and its a really good free mod to do. I have now bitten the bullet and my car is currently at BCS having a full turbo back exhaust fitted. I found with the pre cat removed the turbo spooled up quicker and I got more mpg. Its a job that takes about 90 mins on the driveway.

We do a 76mm downpipe and motor sport cat to the forum members at a far more realistic £561.00 inc vat - essential for making big power with the stage 2 and stage 2 +
