replaces the cat convertor, allows engine to breathe easier, better revs and about 5bhp more, just replace it once a year for the mot, mines exempt because its a '91, but has a cat on it cos its the eunos import,
i went to donnington on saturday and met up with some club members who attend track days reguarly, they took me out for a few laps in thier 5's, one of them a 200bhp turboed animal, a fantastic day, & free too.
read the reviews of the decat pipe on mx5parts you'll get the idea,
ive got the IL motorsports twin pipe on my eunos, im hoping the decat pipe along with the pipercross induction ive got will wake old ladies from thier sleep as i drive pass
im having mine delivered to work at killarmarsh, so theres a good chance it will be on the same van as yours Kev  _________________ eunos 1.6 v-spec racing green,wolfrace alloys

Just been round and fetched it, yes it does look a bit big but it's got to be an improvement and sound better than it did. It will be fitted Saturday am, dead excited not got induction kit on yet or the suspension, but one thing at a time. See you all Sunday. _________________ Mk2 Racing Bronze, bits to go on in garage, bits to buy.....in dreams. |
