Ah, my guess would be decat without a map then, first thing to do is buy a OBD2 reader from somewhere like eBay or amazon, between £7-20 depending if you need Bluetooth or wifi (apple phones don't support Bluetooth versions) and then download an app to read the codes.
Other thing worth mentioning is if it has in fact had the cats removed without a map this is very bad and can lead to the engine going bang due to boost spikes etc (more so on new age cars I believe)

Gotcha, well in that case if it hasnt had a map then it definitely should get one... does it have a boost gauge in it at the moment? if so do you know what it is the highest boost it hits?
