Decat downpipe and engine mounts..
« on: April 23, 2015, 10:26:51 pm »
Advice on which decat downpipe to buy? Car already has a cat back fitted by previous owner, some people have said milltek crack a lot and just buy an eBay one and some say stay away from the eBay ones?

Also what engine mounts do I need to be updating to project the flexi and what are my options for these?

Thanks in advance

Ebay ones will be fine, as long as you do Powerflex lower engine mount and the rear dogbone insert.

See here for the mounts you need to protect the flexi pipe:
