Exhaust changes completed today (amazing sounds)
Discussion
Well,as you are aware, i had a sleeved exhaust and was getting pretty fed up with it,so a post on here got Phil from Salisbury(thanks again Phil) to call round and do a swop, so i got the standard system back on.
Added to that, and advise taken from various PH's(cheers Daz for pics and vids), as to which was the best way to achieve the correct exhaust sound,(Precats out,decat Y piece and standard system was the overall agreement)i contacted Clive and he sent me one of his beautiful Y pieces
All was fitted this morning,and to say i am over the moon is an understatement
The sound is amazing, and i must say the car is vastly improved on the revs,the accelerator feels so light and responsive

Fitting Megasquirt to mine and was thinking of removing the cats. Is there any problem with emmissions or do I have to Find a "friendly" MOT station?
Where can I obtain a plain Y piece without the cat so I can retain the original cat for MOTs if I need to?
For some reason, I got an extra 30ish horses when the cats were removod.Where can I obtain a plain Y piece without the cat so I can retain the original cat for MOTs if I need to?
I have retained an original Y piece just in case although a crisp £20 saw it sail through last time!

My pleasure - enjoying the barrage of anti-aircraft fire on the overrun!

Like i said the revs were so much more responsive,i can easily see why the BHP may go up.
Still to RR after the work at V8D this summer,and the decat must improve even more!
It will get better once its bedded in .The ACT is ok,alot cheaper but i get some under bonnet noise (gases traveling through the Y piece)..Sounds a bit like a yank motor.Still to RR after the work at V8D this summer,and the decat must improve even more!
Do you get this with Clives Y piece.?
