Beetlebug_2001 0 Posted November 2, 2003 Im a bit dumb so please forgive my question, how much of an exhaust am i getting for £265 i have a 1.8 16v without a CAT, do u get the full manifold with that as well or is it just the pipes coming from the manifold onwards to the rear?

Furkz 0 Posted November 2, 2003 u get from the CAt to the rear exit pipe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted November 2, 2003 u get from the CAt to the rear exit pipe i think beetlebug is meaning cos he never had a cat fitted where will the system start from....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beetlebug_2001 0 Posted November 2, 2003 As far as i know the 1.8 16v never had a CAT, so where will the system start from then will it just mount on to the exsisting manifold or do i get a new manifold 2, if i dont get a manifold anyone know where i can get one from cos i want one as well?

TBH.....i don't think milltek list any system for the 1.8 16v......and you'd be looking at quite a bit more than £300+ just for the manifold alone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beetlebug_2001 0 Posted November 2, 2003 yeah thought it was pricy for a manifold 2 just thought id check still want one though, i think i might goto exhausts uk and get them to build me a custom one, i quite fancy making it sound throaty like a subaru impreza, a deep gurgle :), dunno if its possible but it sure would be nice.

stevemac 0 Posted November 2, 2003 Apparently u only need a CAT system from 1994 onwards CAT fitment is UK law from August 1992 (K reg) If your car is J reg 1992 (like mine) then you're okay to de-CAT. I find it very surprising that your MOT station is not aware of this ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted November 2, 2003 CAT is fitted since 1991 onwards and HAVE to be on a vehicle from Aug 1992 but are not tested for uk law till 1994.. Although personally i think like urself thats is in affect from mid 92 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Furkz 0 Posted November 2, 2003 suppose they give us a couple of years to get used to the idea LOL has like we give a fuck if there is a CAT on the car or not Unless u into performance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevemac 0 Posted November 2, 2003 I agree, who gives a f**k about ozone. The experts reckon it's starting to repair itself anyway.. :angel: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted November 2, 2003 i wasnt looking at it from that point but i suppose thats pretty good validation. see all these peeps with half can of hairspray on than a couple of cans of deodorant and a driving their de-cat car to the recycling centre with old newspapers and bottles LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevemac 0 Posted November 2, 2003 I think the government should relax the CAT laws. I was serious about the ozone layer - I was watching a TV program the other week and according to a recent study, experts reckon that it really is starting to repair itself. Shame really - I was looking forward to some real hot summers once the greenhouse effect started to get a good hold.. :lol: :lol: I know - I really do watch some crap on TV :puppydogeyes: I think I need to get out more.. :shaking: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jabba fitted my Magnex while they were doing the charger a few months ago. My G60 has the later type hangers, so I think it went straight on. Getting a Powerflow stainless CAT bypass soon - only £60 fully fitted. Are you coming up to Donnington Park on Sunday ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regarding the big bore exhausts you do, what size is the VR6 one? 2.5"? What are the advantages of increasing the tube diameter? Cheers Kev Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
