Morning folks,

If I buy a decat pipe (from mx5parts for example) for my 1990 1.6, is it going to be worthwhile?

Will I notice any increase in power?
Will it affect the running of the engine in any way? (what about the O2 sensor?)
How much noisier will it get, and what will it sound like?


Cheers
biggrin

Anyone fancy doing a soundclip of either a decat scenario, or decat plus mild exhaust? Those with stupid loud exhausts need not apply hehe

Cool.

Bluetone, did you do your fuel filter? How much of a faff was it? wink

Poor little 5 frown Keep at it, pattern parts aren't that expensive for the 5s. Someone else had theirs crashed into recently on here, and it was being repaired. Even if they do write it off, buy it back smile
