What to do after full de-cat fitting
#3
1. Run it for a few K miles to get the exhaust nice and coked up.
2. Rev to 3K revs and remove foot, let engine sink to 2K revs and again rev to 3K revs and remove foot
3. Repeat.
4. Grin widely as your car goes Whoosh, Bang, Whoosh, Bang.
Enjoy it!

I've just had a downpipe fitted at H&S (thanks Ian for great service)- car feels much more punchy and has a lovely aggressive exhaust note plus all the whistles and twitters!
One question - when I'm accelerating hard there is a noise a bit like an induction roar although quieter. Is this the wastegate venting to bleed off boost and I just couldn't hear it before on the standard downpipe?

mclark,
a full decat was my first mod on my MY00
peak power went from 226bhp to 258bhp
although i did loose some torque when comparing certain parts of the curve plot.
i later had a TEK2 remap done, this took advantage of the decat and sorted any fueling issues, power then rose to 284bhp, but more importantly the torque curve was higher all through the plot and peaked at 272lbsft
and for the 1/4 mile fanatics like myself...
standard: 14.8sec
after decat: 14.0sec
after remap: 13.1sec

kevin stanton,
had the TEK2 remap done at Power Engineering near london, not many places do it so you might have to travel, well worth the trip though
took them about 3 hours, most of the time on the rollers getting the car setup, wasnt boosting right before which could have been the decat, it now holds 1.3BAR
