Hi everyone.
I'm looking at buying a decat for my all standard agu.
I've been told that it's a case of taking the old pipe off and putting the decat on and that's it.
But now it's changed and that I might need a new gasket for it aswell. Oh yeah... And also a reducer as it might not fit.
So can anybody tell me what I need in total as its doing my f**king head in now.
Thankyoy

dean, the pipe in the ads section doesn`t come with the reducer like mine did, so you`ll need a 2.5-2.25" reducer to fit to your standard exhaust. you might be able to reuse your old gasket depending on its condition.
if you`re looking for more power then its a part that you`ll benefit from as the standard cat is very restrictive. the exhaust itself is not too bad.
if you just want a stage one map and stick with it, then you`ll be fine with what you have. but if at a later date you want to go stage 2 and k03s then I`d suggest you sort out some breathing and fueling to benefit.
personally for the price it is, I would snap it up now as even if you don`t fit it now, it`ll be useful at a later stage when you do get bored of your stage 1 map.

if you have 2 sensor holes then you'll need a spacer on the rear to prevent coding after the cat, which decat are you getting would help us out as well

Doesn't apply, he has an agu so only one O2 sensor!
