If you've got a socket set, some stands and a couple of jacks it should be easy enough. I assume there's a lot more room in the bay of a 200 so access should not be a problem.
I got the box out and in my 182 in a day. Pig of a job but easily doable to save 200 quid.
I want to decat my 172 with ktec stealth but I work in a school and it's bad enough as it is. I usually try to coast in so I'm not sounding too obnoxious lol.
On my old 182 I found the best sound was when I had the janspeed 2.25 with centre silencer with decat.
I tried all combinations and for me that was best. Decat with no centre resonator was too loud
Is this the correct one?

If you know anybody who can get trade discount at euros then the Bosch ones are only about 50 quid.
I took a risk and just swapped it without paying for somebody to read live data and problem solved. They do seem a pretty common failure.
When i bought my 172 I was consistently getting 32 average. Then suddenly it dropped to 27.
Changed the pre cat lambda and now I average 35.
Mixed driving, my work is about 5 miles away and the route is all back roads.
Not sure, never had to do it but it will take a bit of thinking about as you will need to know the position of the pistons as you adjust.
A competent mechanic should be able to do it but to be honest until you get it diagnosed properly your pissing in the wind.
