Is there much gain to be had from a decat on the standard system on a 265? Is it much noisier? Thanks
It will be noisier, sharper throttle response but to get the best from it you'll have to get it mapped
I am interested in the noise change cruising on the highway. Thinking about getting the de-cat done next spring but worried that on the highway it will be too loud.
Yeah that is my main concern too, I do not want drone/boominess! Can anyone with decat in share their opinions? Will the car spit flames with a decat in?!
Find a friendly tester Decat all the way for me tbh, changed the sound but not enough for unwanted attention + don't give it the the beans near the police orificers.
Mine flames already without a decat, look forward to seeing them with it fitted. For mot, find a friendly tester and hope you dont get pulled by vosa.
Jamie what other work is done to your car for it to be flaming? Or is it standard? Would like some flames
I love da flames man i got flamer kit and decat you can imagine the proper massive fire display my megane gives. Get a kid to sit in your car and hold it to the limmiter and see if it flames I've had kidz holding sausages and marshmellows on sticks behid me ride
CAI = Cold Air Intake. Can be an open cone or closed filter housing to avoid engine bay 'hot air'. Most run a cold air feed from the front grille to aid cool air supply. See designs from ITG, K&N etc.
It's pretty much a stage 1, will be getting a proper stage 2 map next year though with possibly a hybrid turbo
