With my track day coming up on this thursday I thought it was time to put the decat pipe on.

While i was there i cut out the back bumper track style as it was melted around the tail pipe plastic - from the stupidly large powerflow.

I also cut the nasty oval off the backbox.

before



after





The decat does make a difference, revs are much more free.

Also the temperatures seemed a little more controled under the bonnet

the exhuast is much quieter without the oval which im happy about as i have to meet the 98db limit at castle coombe

Opinions welcome
