Water leak after swapping downpipe
........bit of a strange one this,but after i swapped my decat dp for a catted one (MOT time) the car has developed a water leak from somewhere.Ive removed and checked the hose that goes from the turbo and that is fine ive checked all round the engine,checked banjo bolts on turbo (despite the fact that none of these were touched during removal and refitting of dp) The car was up in the air at the time on one axle stand on passenger side if that helps.
I did drive it 3 or so miles to my nans house and checked it after a small run and it wasnt leaking and water temp on commander was reading 87 deg and the temp needle was below 1/2 way
any ideas????

coincidental perhaps?
check the sides of the rad for splits..
I presume you know it is leaking as the temp goes up and water is low rather than seeing water dripping?
