I learned acouple things doing mine, the top bolt from turbo to cat is horrible to get to with almost no access, the other 2 are easily gotten to under the car, get replacement cat to Downpipe bolts before you start you’ll need them, I did my o2 sensors after removing the cat
Good vid. Now I have an idea of what sort of task I am taking on, when I will be doing this soon. Also good thing you mentioned changing the gaskets. I heard about that couple that died and It made me a little nervous about installing a de-cat on my own car.
@@Marzaezone Finally installed it on my car. Your video was an amazing help. I never really understood what you meant with the heat shield though. I ended up taking off the turbo heat shield, but never got it out of the engine bay. (I actually had to cut the lower part of it off, as the bolt there was rounded as soon as I turned the wrench on it) Then I just had to unscrew the cat's heat shield after I had taken the downpipe off of the turbo, to yank it out between the floor and the front bridge (sorry if I get terminology mixed up. danish and english technical terms aren't always directly translatable haha) The entire thing took me 12 hours and I even had it on a lift. Good thing I am not a professional and only mess with this stuff for fun and to learn haha
Quick question, do you reuse the heat shield then? I think mine got disposed when I got my sports cat as the sports cat came with one 🙄 Now I wanna go decat (as the sports cat is Fubar) and I don't have a heat shield
I hope you will get this but hope did y’all get the header heat shield off bc that the one thing that blocking me from picking on my downpipe
You lying under that car with no axel stands is giving me the fear 😫
😅it’s alright it was pretty secure
Enjoyed watching this decat installation. Keep it up 👏👏
Thanks💪🏽

did you put heat shield back on had to break mine off
Certainly crackles alot more with the decat bro 👍
Yeah, a lil bit muffled tho cause it’s cat safe
Man i broke my 3 studs too, in the exact same place on the Turbo. It's a big pain in the ass.

Yeah their decat wasn’t installed correctly which is essential for you to install a new fire ring and leave it to professionals 😁🤙🏽

Do you not get an eml for the decat?
Love the crackle just got a st myself how did you get it to crackle 🙏
Is there a part 2 video
What the song called at the beginning???
Good vid man. Do you have a dyno tune with that dp?

Yeah I reused the heat shield for the manifold and turbo 🤝
When did you get those wheels? Sorry to hear about your decat issue. Hybrid turbo yes yes
A couple months ago 👌🏽wasn’t feeling the fifteen52’s
just done mine today, absolute ballache of a job wouldn’t recommend doing it on a drive haha
Never go under a vehicle with just a jack! Always use axle stands.
Probably the most ignored rule 😮💨
Nice video👏🏽
Cheers 🥂
@@Marzaezonehowsit mate, did you do a software remap after you installed the downpipe. Did you use mini cats as well?
man said hybriddd
Decat looks hard to install😞
The snapped bolt was challenging 😬
3 inch System ?
2.75” 🤙🏽
does it pass mot ?
Not a chance 😂
@@Marzaezone might have to spend £500+ on a sports cat fuuuuckk :c
Find a friendly mot dude🦦
@@Marzaezone wish i know one not sure if they exist in the SW
Which area you based?

Naa I wish😂
@@Marzaezone oh rah, then what have you done to the exhaust to sound so peng
Literally, just a scorpion non res 3” exhaust and the decat 😂🤝
