Question

Does any one have an accurate idea of the gains if the center cat on a MY00 is removed. Does it make any difference at all.

The down pipe has not yet been changed, I am just thinking ahead.

De cat centre and Scorpion B/B on mine, which is a MY00 also.

I may just go ahead and remove the cat while I get a friend of mine with a muffler shop to make the down pipe.

Only problem with full de cat is emmisions when you come to MOT
and being pulled by the Fuzz (painful) for the loud exhaust, then there's the fine when it doesn't pass the emmisions test.

But on a more serious note, I have driven one with a full De cat
it does make a hell of a difference
