I had a full de-cat on my old MY98 UK Turbo. Started off with the full afterburner (not Vortex but origional.)



It was ridiculously noisy and so I made enquiries about a replacement. The Revolution was recommended as was the Scoobysport. I latterly changed my b/b for a Scoobysport which was an excellent choice. Nice and quiet on tick over and sweet on WOT!!! Nice fitting pipe and it had a classic look to it; not Chav like or anything.



They are vey well made as well. They are very popular and you should be able to pick one up on here.

Regarding power gains, mine was not Dyno's before or after but some reckon about 20 - 25 bhp can be gained from a full de-cat. You should really consider an ECU re-map after de-catting for the best results. I did not opt for this on my classic however certainly noticed enhanced pick up, not to mention the looks and the noise. You will notice the noise of the turbo spooling up MUCH more which is kind of cool!!! Hope this helps!!

The Magnex system is a good one too, not too loud but gives a nice burble.

I bought the magnex 5" slash cut system for mine sounds lovely, nice deep sound when you back off the throttle at high speed

Scooyworlds Ninja system is awsome !

They are also doing the new Racebox which is not a slash cut jap style
but a little more subtle, and if you trade in your old orinonal back box you
get a sweet discount
