Default Decatted Down Pipe

Hi

Will the Japspeed decatted down pipe any good? I ask as I quite like the look (and price) of their systems and want to get one bit by bit!
Also, is it 'okay' to install this without a remap?!

Cheers

I have a Japspeed FMIC so can vouch for the quality. Check out the Groupbuy section as he does good prices for scoobynet members. You will need a remap though

It should pass mot if you just de cat the downpipe and leave the other cat alone and make sure it's in good condition.

I had my decat downpipe for a few weeks before remapping. Be aware the engine management light may come, mine didn't. I would really recomend remapping asap after doing this. Mine felt a bit sluggish and just not all there. With the remap felt like a different car

Fitting a downpipe without a remap is not a problem.
You ask about the Japspeed downpipe. It is cheap enough but made from thin walled material but for a downpipe, as opposed to headers I don't suppose that matters.
