Title: Where is my owl noise?
Post by: scarr89 on 17 January 2012, 15:03

Fitted my decat DP the other day...no owl noise? I was promised that my ARL would make an owl noise? Literally no difference in sound. It is a little bit more rattley that about it. 

Also...I'm pretty sure my MPG dropped  :undecided: I was under the impression that decats increased MPG?  :sad:

Mine hoots mainly in first, second, and a little in third, quite loud too!  :evil:

It only does it if i dont boot it too much, too many revs and no hoot. :( I found it got louder when it got warmed up too, more torque and mid range pulling too!

My MPGs plumitted with the cooler weather too!  :cry:
