Title: Decat Or Sports Cat
Post by: Gandy on 02 January 2014, 16:11

HI Guys....
Just been Given a De-cat for my Golf Mk4 Turbo....it has at the moment a standard system but what I was wondering was, if the De-cat went on would it bring up any lights on the dash...Or is it safer with the sports cat?
Cheers Guys  :smiley:

You can get o2 sensor spacers that can help stop you throwing up fault codes, I got a right angle one from ebay that seems to do the job.

Im on my second decat pipe and never had a light (or code) come up (im ARZ) one was a custom made pipewerx one and the other is the ebay special 3" turbo back system (think they both must have had the spacer built in)
