Bit of a noob question. What is the advantage to decat a car. Is it just to make extra noise?

Mainely for extra noise but can inprove flow through the exhaust as its not restricted by the cat and can inprove bhp but were talking no more than 15 max so not a great deal, will only see in vtr/s cars for a bigger improvment, you tend to use up more fuel than normal too as their is no cat to convert are try to reuse unburnt fuel with a decat is streight out so heavely polutes.

And yes pipe with no cat will do the trick same situation as mine mate easier than swappinf the mani in and out
