Calling all sti 5 owners... advice needed please
#1
I am thinking of changing the exhaust downpipe for a decatted straight through on my MY 2000 sti v. I intend to leave the centre and back sections. Has anyone done this and if so have you had any problems? If I am commiting a cardinal sin and asking for trouble please feel free to let me know as I have my flame proof suit on.

Be aware though that you'll need to refit the catted downpipe at MOT time, unless you know a compliant tester.
Potential downsides are a leaning of the mixture, possibly leading to detonation. However, if you're already taking the precautions you should be taking (Use of Super Unleaded/Optimax plus octane booster, and a KnockLink), you shouldn't run into any problems.
