should a decat look like this?

[Shaun!]

I thought they would just be a straight through pipe with hole for a lamba??

 

[Ali]

Nope, janspeed one has a wee silencer in it. You can get straight pipes tho.

Silenced decat

 

[Shaun!]

so that is defo a "legit decat" then? its just silenced? What sort of sound would that give?

 

[Shaun!]

are we saying thats janspeed? and not k tec or anything else?

 

[Cro]

doesn't look like my janspeed silenced anyway, but more than like a silenced decat. Could well be a custom one if nobody recognises it

 

[Shaun!]

im just confused as to why it has that box in it, if its a decat, surely it should just be straight through?? confused !!! doh

 

[Cro]

For it to be a 'silenced' decat it needs to have a 'silencer' hence the box round the outside dude. The pipe will still be straight through tho

 

[Shaun!]

but surely that just restricts the airflow? so if i fit something like that, will it be any loude than a standard exhaust system ?

 

[Ali]

It'll be louder...Marginally.

 

[Shaun!]

so if I have a phase 2 2001 172, should I buy the one with just 1 single lamba hole? as it seems I have 2 parrallel cats on mine? im not really sure if this is the right model or not?

 

[Ali]

:S Good question.

Although i thought the ph1 and ph2 both fit the same decat...(Janspeed specific)

 

[Shaun!]

mmm still confused !

I saw that one listed on eBay too.

It looked more like a sports cat to me but i wasnt too sure tbh so didn't bother.

Theres a decat group buy on the go atm. If you're thinking about bidding on that one on eBay remembers it's not stainless steel.

If you're not bidding on the one from eBay my entire post has been a waste of time and i'll get my coat!

 

[Shaun!]

where abouts is the group buy?

 

[Cro]

The silencer box is around the outside of the pipe, and wouldnt think it restricts it at all if anything noticable.
How many lambda's do you have....then thats the amount of holes you need. Doesnt matter if you have 2 cylinders or not it'll be one decat pipe
