Thinking of doing the same,

I would be interested to know how the performance is affected,

also the sound too.

click image for video, ok its just on idle but sounded lovely when going. not to loud but not overly quite either.

Nice one Vodkashots,:thumbup1: really appreciate you posting the video.

I was rather hoping for something a bit louder,

a bit more aggressive sounding,:taz: if you know what I mean?

What would you suggest?

This is my car when it had standard size downpipes/de-cat pipes and a mongoose on the back, we've since put japspeed downpipe/de-cat pipes on and the raspy-ness is gone :(

kiss goodbye to your turbos :tt2:

 

unless its an NA lol. I dont actually agree with the above statement, I've never had a problem with turbos following a decat.

Kakimoto exhaust matey, or HKS super drager but that tends to be single exit.

 

Or get one custom made with mahoosive pipes like ive currently got on mine. ill get a video tomorrow of the sound. very beefy.

my turbos on that red one were fine and it was decatted for around 7 years

That's not a guarantee Baz! lol Mine has been de-catted since May/June time and has been given some hammer, my tubbies are fine.

Blimey, thats sounds quite loud alot louder than Ians/vods from what i can make of it.

It's got quieter since we put the Japspeed de-cat pipes on, but we did also change the cat-back section as well. Roses had some custom made exhaust on it, which wasn't very good, so we purchase a full exhaust second hand from Kinugawa Turbo, Mongoose cat-back with Japspeed de-cats, I only had standard mild steel de-cats, connected to a Mongoose cat-back on mine in that video. Rather than faffing around splitting everything up, when we broke Roses yellow Z, we just took both exhausts off at the downpipes and swapped. I then split my old exhaust, so someone else now has my original cat-back sections and my mild steel de-cats are sat in the garage ready to be sold.

if you have a N/A a decatted mongoose sounds awesome

again click image to view video, this was my old N/A very first zed i ever had, changed the engine on it after the first one put 2 conrods through the block and sump. this was it after it was fixed when mid-wales-zx had it.

Jesus Vods, have you ever thought you might have more luck if you just walked everywhere? lol

 

As for the noise, NA V6 FTW!

Just picked it up ,does sound a bit different a bit deeper but not much.Car feels like it can breath at last,also there is no smoke which is cool.

WOW! Hollowpoint, that sounds mean!:w00t: a bit too mean for me though,

I need to keep on the right side of the neighbour's, lol :lol:

I think I need something in between your video and Vodkashots video.

Thanks for the info by the way Vodkashots with regards Kakimoto system, has anyone got a video I could hear?

I will probably only ever get one system, so I really need to get it right.
