Question

Hi

I have a UK MY98 Turbo.

Bought a SS back box. Loved it!

Bought a SS de cat centre. Thought it didnt add much. But...seems better at low revs, could be the weather? Then when you boot it, it sounds fkin great

Did not think I would want to spend the £400 on the downpipe. There again I did not think I would mod my first Scoob

So, OK I now want the downpipe.

What I would like to know is how it affects anything else as a side effect? E.g. [/dumb mode on]MAF sensor[/dumb mode off - a bit]. Chip mapping etc etc. Basically can I bung it on without concern for anything else, or is it more complicated than?

TIA for all advise

Matt

Talking

get the hayward+scott downpipe,open neck,
fantastic quality and is only around £200 and can be bought on here from the scooby shop,have a look!!!!!!!!its a sexy bit of kit!!!!!!!!!
get some exhaust insulation tape around it before you fit it as it keeps the temp down under the bonnet.
