Hawkeye De-cat options
Looking for some info on exhaust options for a hawkeye.
I have a standard exhaust system with a prodrive back box and would like to keep the center pipe and back box but remove both cats.
Just to be clear, I am I right in thinking there is a cat in the down pipe and one between the down pipe and center pipe?
The systems I have seen are full systems but I don't want to replace the full system as I like the quiet tone achieved from the resonated OEM center pipe and back box.
Thanks...

I personally wouldn't fit a decat unless you have a friendly mot station
Take it you have an sti? As you know the engines aren't that reliable above 400
So if it is a fully standard 2.5 sti (like mine) I would just fit a full 3 inch exhaust with sports cat
I got the miltek system second hand from a breaker on here (sure he has another one)
There roughly 600 quid for a second hand system and near double brand new

Its a WRX
I am going to get just the sports cat down pipe to marry up to the 2nd cat and retain the rest of the OEM system.
I am aware of the potential engine problem and am only looking at 320 bhp from the car.
Going to get a VF34/35, fuel pump & down pipe. Hopefully will see me with a safe 320/350...
