To Decat or not to Decat?

Well err, it's a bit boring, quiet till you floor it but boring lol

No more lift off over run, no flames, no pops or bangs, and for the first time in lude ownership I can hear road noise

Guess I'll run it for a while till I get used to it, and fix all the noises that I couldn't hear before

I'll give a try for a while, getting a bit old for a stupidly loud exhaust on a road car

Only thing is reving at a stand still and it's raspy, and I HATE raspy exhausts, much rather a deep tone which the H22 can produce

janspeed are good at getting best power from zorst but agree mine is a little raspy. was rattly the other day till i tied a rope round the heatshield and tied the other end to my kids 306 and towed it out from under the car

no Pushki i did not save it

would like a more throaty sound to it.

The old exhaust was pretty much a straight through, and i think any baffles left in it had bitten the dust, sounded ace, but not nice for long journeys, a constant drone even in 5th

Nothing wrong with loud exhausts and flames, it was how the engine was supposed to be,
