remove the cat

[tyredfitter]

thinking of takin the cat and centre section out of my 300 tdi
good or bad idea, anybody don  it, any diffrence performance wise !!!!!!!!!!!

[Paul]

The 300tdi I have now has a straight through exhaust, no silencer or cat.

Sounds nice too. 8)

if you buy the early 300 front pipe it comes with a flexi but no cat or a 300 front pipe for the defenders also fits bit has no flexy or cat

[Damonski]

I thought the cat was needed for an MOT ?

[Paul]

No not needed for MOT.

just got the back box on mine thanks to dave 333. And it sounds great

[swamp]

but will it go any better ?

[Colin 009]

You know that your'll have to remove the Dog aswell...  :lol:

[tyredfitter]

not came across the early front pipe for the discovery will have a look in the exhaust books at work tomorrow,the cheaper option is to cut the flexi out and replace it with a new one (its knackered)and straight pipe to the rear box section ,hope its noisy enough :twisted:

[davidlandy]

you can buy just the flex to weld in

[gtomo2]

Well all i can say is mine sounds nice and took it for a drive around before and it dos pull better. Its going for its mot tomorrow so i will know then if its ok fingers crossed

[davidlandy]

so does the cat act as a silencer as well then?

[tyredfitter]

You know that your'll have to remove the Dog aswell...  :lol:

cant do that ive got huskeys and i need them to pull the landrover when it breaks down.

[gtomo2]

i bought a 2 meter lentgh of flex pipe this mornig £26.75 from ces. Dont think the cat dos a lot for the noise just diesels are not that noisy out the exhausrt. just have a nice low tone :D

[Dave]

So it go's well then mate, hope all go's well tomorrow too. Sure it will pass no problem

[gtomo2]

Yea thanks for that dave very much appreciated for doing my car today. Just found out that the prop stafts have greese nipples on them so they took a full tube of greese me thinks they have never been greesed before. and the car even had a boyracer turn and look at it as i drove passed :lol: so it must sound nice at revs :lol:

[Dave]

Your very welcome mate, did sound nice as you drove off think i might have to get a back box and get rid of the middle box  

[gtomo2]

got a lenth of flex tube if you want it

[tyredfitter]

cant wait to hear what it sound like just got to fit a new clutch tomorrow night oh joy hope it not the gearbox....what a way to spend sat night :D  :D thanks for all the input...

[Xtremeteam]

when i go back to work on tues ill get the part No for the noncat front pipe with flexi,think they are about £65

[gtomo2]

well the exhaust passed the mot with just the back box on. but failed on some other points.

[tyredfitter]

when i go back to work on tues ill get the part No for the noncat front pipe with flexi,think they are about £65

cheers for that but got the exhaust off at the moment doin the clutch so i will just make one up thanks again
