Hi matey the lad who had the car before us had work done at power station decat and maps, but decided to take the off to sell because people might not like that type of thing... so cats back on right now 
I have two read out things at the moment lemme read what it says..
Inspector was Cookson
standard downpipe, cold air induction kit, ecutek, 1.35 bar
Engine power readout was 306BHP 372.5 torque
2nd one was
3" decat, headers, up pipe, panel filter, ecutek, 1.35 bar
Engine power readout was 342BHP 422.9 torque
He left headers and up pipe and few others bits on but took off decats but then the ecutek is running for decats and now cats are back on cant be good can it?
Regards,
Daz

The car should be fine if it is mapped for no cats and has then had them put back on. It'll just be less responsive that's all. If it were the other way around, mapped for cats and then had them removed then I would say be careful.
It can't hurt to have the map tweaked again once you fit the RCM system and it shouldn't take too long for this be done, neither will it be that expensive.
Oh, and do not scrimp on fuel. Use V Power all the time.
Powerstation have done all the work to my car. Take a look on my plus profile.
Personally I wouldn't use them again for mapping, but that's just me.

Hi mate, yes i looked at your car very very nice to be honest my black one is looking at me everyday i go to work in the garage dieing to go for a spin but first gotta sell the classic 
When we bought it from Birmingham we had them both next to each other on dual carridgeway 2nd gear start off roundabout and i flew him in the classic so i doubt its standard i might get her dyno'd to see if its true or not but goes very quick.
Once she goes mind that black one will be spoilt washed 3 days a week maybe more
once i get my camera phone to work i shall post some pics for you guys 
And its good to know that my black car is safe right now thanks for the info bud
Cheers,
Daz

Thanks for the warm welcome guys and i have seen a few scoobs around i beep at em all
And we sure will come to a meet as soon as we have sold the classic and get the new one looking good
The one problem that we have with the black one is there is literally hundreds of stone chips all over the front bumper and few little dings in the roof the car was parked under a massive tree
so any idea how we could solve this replace/respray costs etc?
Thanks guys
