I know a guy from Austria who bought this downpipe. But he was very disappointed from it as it becaused a massiv loss in spool up and power output of the engine.

The reason therefor is the used cat. It´s only a poor regular ceramic one and definitely no "high flow sports cat" .

I use a non cat 3" downpipe and a non cat 3" front pipe from Aussi and welded a 100 CPI steel cat into the front pipe:





It´s passing the german smoke test we have to pass every 2nd year without any problems and I don´t feel a loss in power or spool up compared to the previous non cat setup.

cheers for the advice mate ill give them an email and see what sort of cat is in it but i doubt ill use one. i may look into fabricating a cat lower down the pipeline

Owners cars have failed the UK MOT emissions with this 120 cell CATed decat pipe
