I had a decat fitted to stock exhaust on your old diablo. It went bloody well! sounded lovely and raspy, but not boomy which was brilliant. Personally if you aren't into non-stock levels of exhaust noise, but want a more sporty tone when giving it the beans, I'd definitely recommend. Not 100% sure on the fit of magnex decats mind, but I'm pretty sure they go straight on!________________________________________ '97 Black Dturbo 110,000miles: SOLD'99 Ph3 Diablo Gti6 108k RIP '93 106 1.5n/a d: daily hack YAAAAAWN '00 Ph3 Astor GTi6 117k  |

^^ Yeah thinking about it, it's my Peugeotsport 2-1 decat pipe that was a sleeved fit, the Magnex decat pipe I have on now is a flanged fit exactly the same as a stock downpipe! Should know that really!!  ________________________________________ '97 Black Dturbo 110,000miles: SOLD'99 Ph3 Diablo Gti6 108k RIP '93 106 1.5n/a d: daily hack YAAAAAWN '00 Ph3 Astor GTi6 117k |

You'll also lose a noticeable amount of mid range torque. ________________________________________ Ph1 306 GTi 6 | RX8 231 S1 | YBR 125 Cafe Racer | MT-03 660 |

Get a universal 200 cell sports cat welded into your downpipe if its in good condition Got one on mine,passes MOT emissions test and I have found its the best option on my Rallye for sure Its a nice compromise between de-cat and standard cat,car revs out much easier than it does with standard cat fitted,but also feels more punchy mid-range than it did with a de-cat fitted With de-cat fitted mine did 180bhp on a rolling road,with 200 cell sports cat fitted it did 177bhp. ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

A decat knocks loads of mid range torque off. I had a decat, lasted 2months and put the cat back on. Dont sound as good but goes better.  ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |
