Decat
hi guys
Currently my MY95 STI has a 3" decat reduced to 2.5", the new exhaust system i purchased from scooby clinic wont fit the reduced section of the decat pipe as the decat pipe flange is flat. I have a 2.5" decat pipe in the garage that will fit it but am worried i will loose power and need to get it remapped again,,, any idea guys??? as the scooby clinic decat pipe including delivery is almost £400 pounds which is mega??(but it will fit)
cheers

Hi. I might be wrong but I DON'T think that you'll lose any power. You won't be able to feel any difference between 2.5 and 3 inch exhaust, unless you're going for serious BHP like 400-500 Bhp. As I said, it is only my private opinion. I'll bet that some people on here could give you more "confirmed" informations about exhaust size.
Hope this help.

no idea mate havent had a chance to get it on a rolling road but would expect 300bhp at least, i have a set of 440cc injectors FMIC and DV to fit over the next few weeks!! then remap it again!!! once this is done a trip to the rollers will be in order!! ive had a mapped WR1 and an RB320 and this feels alot faster !!!
