Default Front pipe De cat

Ive been quoted on having a decat for the front pipe and was wondering if its worth it?
Does it give you much more power or just a titchy bit!!
The quote ive got is about £300 fitted so i want it to be worth it

Thanks

certainly opens up the rest of the exhaust if you've done the decat....

Enjoy !

Does this mean it going to be even louder?

Ive already got the system from hell (which was already on it)
Looks like a Blitz exhaust but its very very loud!

It will be slightly louder, but it will give a much better sound too, IMO.

Nobody I've spoken to has regretted fitting one, because of the increased torque, and less turbo lag.

The price seems slightly high, but on an older car they can be a bugger to get the nuts off, so they've probably allowed for that.
