hi guys,

i’m wondering how much of a difference there is in performance between choosing a sportscat or a decat?

will it matter if I’m gonna go with lets say a dreamscience tune?

Is it worth running illegal with a decat or will the sportscat do the job just as fine if we’re not pushing the engine/turbo to the absolute maximum anyway?

I am thinking in the range of 400-to maximum 430 hp?

sports cat….

would be my choice!

No nothing.

No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

No tackiness.

Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

Innit?

Personally don’t understand why anyone would do a decat and make the car illegal.

Magnetic Grey with all the best bits

FPM375/COBB/MSD- Quaife LSD, DSC+Tractive Suspension, HJS200 cell sports cat and MT Cooler. Sync3 upgrade.

Was UK seller for DSC & Tractive Active suspension !!!

Most modified cars certainly older ones will be running decats, cheap performance gain.

How ever I’m staying legal for the first time in around 13 years ?

I am drawn towards staying legal aswell, but was just wondering how much you gain from going catless compared to sports cat?
