Dave
Just wanted to say a big thank you once again for sorting out the de-cat pipes. Just got mine fitted and it was perfect - took 10 minutes and the fitter was damn impressed with it. Cheers mate :D :D :D :D

You are very welcome! Glad to be of help. Derek had his fitted Yesterday as well and I think he was chuffed as well!

Is there a noticable difference in performance, I know they say around 10% but don't know whether it is noticable.

10% is pushing it a bit! maybe 10BHP is more realistic, or about 3%.

3%, I would not think this was noticable

There will be more noise and should be a bit more power.
The cat acts as a muffler box. Now you've only got two turbos and a back box keeping it quiet INSERT INTO post VALUES (erm... loud).
Just got a new exhaust fitted today.
Powerflow, 2.5" full stainless with straight through mirror finish 3" back box with 4.5" slash cut tail pipe.
Looks good, but the sound's a little bit 'sporty' for the wife, so this may be for sale soon as I may import one from Japan to replace it.
Got a decat pipe made at the same time, but didn't fit it as I had to take the car straight in for MOT INSERT INTO post VALUES (that's why it needed an exhaust - the mild steel piping on the fujitsubo was on its way out INSERT INTO post VALUES (well - hanging by a piece of rust is more like it).
So, just out of interest, would anybody be interested in a stainless exhaust to go with their de-cat pipe?
I paid £350 today and will accept £275. If there is any interest, then I'll order an exhaust from Japan and mine will be available when it arrives.
Cheers,
Calum

Just want to echo the first post on this thread.
Fitted it this afternoon, and it is millimeter perfect! Top marks, Dave. :thumb1: Not tried it yet. Will see what it's like in the morning!

Dave,
Don't call me 'Mr Thicky' but I must have missed a big chunk of posts somewhere. :$
What is it you are making for £45.00? and if it makes my Legnum faster and louder I want one!
