V12V Secondary Cats

[ripley500]

Just had the secondary cats removed following a number of recommendations from fellow PH - sound is awesome

The V12 sounded great already but now, above 3.5k revs it audible heaven

It also didn’t make it any worse on a long motorway run - trouble is I now want to go everywhere at max revs!!!!

Dealer said it would open up a few more bhp and throttle response - don’t know if it really does or if it’s me but it does certainly seem more responsive.

A top upgrade for less than a grand - all done by main dealer - JCT600 in my case.

For anyone thinking about this - do it, you won’t regret it.

I particularly love the loud crackle on over run but only get it when the engine is cold

Great mod though, agreed. Remote switch too

This is how the car should come We did the same on Flugplatz a couple of years ago and definitely the best thing we ever did. Not long back from Spain and the overrun in the mountain passes just made us chuckle like kids

This is how it should have sounded from factory

'tis indeed a wonderful mod. The wizards at Bamford Rose did mine. It sounds like this now:

Sounds great. Is that a secondary cat delete, primary cat delete or full BR tubular manifolds?

Just a secondary decat. Those big chunky original manifolds and primaries are still very much in place.

Versus V12V, the more beautiful sound from V12VS with only decat is the different OEM muffler (with direct outputs and -10kgs) !
this V12VS muffler can be adapted on all V8-V12 Vantage (except those with oil cooler in the rear bumper)
