    3" system stainless

    Just picked up a complete 3' inch stainless system with race cat, for the black 850r, so she should be back on the fingers crossed soonish with the mint angled 16t.

    Its running blues, so will i need a custom map?

    As above, I was hoping to pay £20 for a friend who has a budget banger T5!

    It went for £120.

    Do these come up often? I think we need a 3" DP and SS exhaust on the car to release some more power. How restrictive is the standard system? It already has a de-cat.

    Yeah around £120, gonna pop across and pick it up, its only a few miles. Not sure if its full 3" system or 3" downpipe and 2.5 system, any how its not a bad price.

    He said it stepped down a bit to me, was also vague about the size/shape of tailpipe. But as you say, bargain regardless. Its nearly a 2hr drive from here I think!

    Will be interested to see how it sounds/changes performance.

    The 'sports cat' looks small, looks more like a disguised de-cat to me.

    Not that fussed de-cat or sports cat, i have 5 t5r's / 850r's ill find a home on one of them for it. I have a good black 850r manual estate, which is modded sat in the garage awaiting a new turbo. Been there 6 months about time i got around to sorting it.

    Nah I tend not to sell anything, it's rather nice and looks cool with the blacked out windows and sitting on it's -40 adjustable konis. Plus if that data sheet is correct there's only 27 manuals left, I've already let a friend have my metallic grey 850r 855 couldn't part with another

    you will not need a remap to run the blues because at 3bar they run the same as white which the 850r has standard , but it would be best to get a map to get the most gain from your new exhaust and angled turbo m8

    Collected and looks very good indeed. Ill get a better look in morning but looks like full 3" and race cat. Chap quoted a ridiculous price £1200 for system but also showed 400bhp plus dyno graphs, so who knows

    Had a measure this morning, its a bit different. 3" downpipe, which continues as 3" through the cat and about 2ft past the cat at 3". Then it reduces to 2.5"

    I thought and most i've seen had 3" down pipes, that narrowed to 2.5 for the cat?

    I also heard that 3" pipes had to narrow to 2.5" at some places?

    Cat is part of the exhaust, its not been chopped in its the way its been made, but its definately been made with an eye on performance.

    Any way of finding out who made it? It looks well smart
