it will effect the post cat sensor as theres no cat so it will see same as pre cat sensor and they should be lower emissions at the post cat sensor.

not sure? can but try, just need to trick post cat sensor in to thinking all is ok. many people run decats on these so must be possible? they cant all be driving round in limp mode?
if I have to fit a sport cat then so be it. just means moving post cat sensor back and making longer loom for it.

for fun!
was only £100 delivered with new gaskets. will sell it with engine when new engine goes in. need to build new engine first, but got the supercharged engine to build before that as I need its block.
need this car to drive around in while im doing that and to fetch/carry parts in.

I know, was looking at second hand decats then got offered 1 for £80 but no image so the guy sent me a link to where he got it from, told me it was £200 new. fool!
I got details from link and phoned, knock them down on price and got it for £100 new!
