basically my car still has the rather large and offensive catalytic converter on and i have considered getting at removed, as its an 850 i cant see why id have any lambda issues etc
has anyone else had this done on an 850??
my spec is...
19t turbo
RICA 340 custom remap
TME cat-back exhaust systam
NGK bkr8eix plugs
i do feel the cat will be restricting the cars performance quite alot with these mods as the turbo runs 1.4 bar for a start but my only concern is since the car was custom mapped with the cat in place will i upset things by removing it or will i see a decent gain and go for it???
thanks simon
