What does a de dat intail? Im guessing remove th ecat and replace with a piece of pipe then replace when going for MoT? Will any exhaust garage do me a de cat or is it a undone taboo?

if you want a deeper exhaust note then decat all the way! milltek imo are way too expensive, you can get a good full system for alot less like blueflame, powerflow, or a custom job!

Ive found de cats on ebay is there any specific kind i need or just one for mk4 golf? does removing the cat effect the engine or anything? Does de cat have the sensors built in?
