chavboys exhaust = decat :)

**craigieboy** · Saturday 11th January 2014, 17:31

Ok so after fitting a v70r exhoust that was kindly donated to me I have finally got round to a decat pipe to replace the cat only to find it sounds exactly the bloodys same >:-( (altho it now goes like a b******) I thinking of either a pipe to replace the middle box or take the wodding out of the back box any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Yeah will do mate just talking to m-r-p about it he recons it will hum really nice with the wodding out back box but it wont drone like it would if the hole thing was straight threw

dont forget even if you take the wadding out itll be full of wadding. youd be better of fitting the standard exhaust again and taking out the silencers and adding one straight through silencer

**stribo** · Saturday 11th January 2014, 18:30

Just take the front silencer out, and get Graeme to make you a pipe to replace it.

A S80 D5 should not sound like a boy racer`s saxo with a big bore exhaust.

got to admit this does sound the dogs

there is another vid of the guy just taking it of the ramps after welding it up and this sound would make me buy a D5

although mines a petrol not a diesel i originally put a straight pipe in place of the back box and the drone was awful. shame though as when ragging it it sounded mental. got it redone with smaller back box fitted and it's the best of both worlds now.

his one has been de-catted

**LiamT4** · Saturday 18th January 2014, 19:46

Strange how de-cats effect some cars more than others, when I had my t4 done it made virtually no difference to the exhaust noise.

**kyekye09** · Saturday 18th January 2014, 20:02

can you decat any off the p2 motors I was told not to on the s60 as the car would have a hissy fit
