Removing the Cat
13. Nov 2010 at 16:56
 
Hi all
Just wondering if taking the cat off my 2.5TD would effect the car at all.
Don`t want to put a new one on as its broken up inside, I`d rather just put a pipe through but dont know if it will throw any fault codes or anything up.
Thanks

No, just take it off. The emmisions won't be affected and it'll give you a little bit more oomph too Thumbs Up!
