So i have £500 to spend after my birthday

Only current mods are: Cat-back system, and panel filter.

I was wondering what manifold and sport cat to get, max £500, and somewhere that doesn't charge the earth to fit!!

I wouldn't see much of a change with just a de-cat would i??

So you wouldn't bother changing the manifold?

Sorry, I meant to say buy the manifold and a de-cat. Then put the cat back in for MOT.

Powerbox - DIY fitting
Manifold - DIY fitting
De-Cat - DIY fitting

Can do that for £500

I can DIY the cat, but as for the other two, not a chance! If i attempted that, it would be worse than Mad Mike!

The manifold is easy peesy, it'll be harder to fit the decat as you have to chop the centre section and then widen the cat to slip over.

Plus, Mad Mike is a credit to DIYers the world over!

First spend some cash on the inlet manifold, then 4 branch then take the cat out.

I suggest what DeanW said on this one
