What is a Decat Pipe ...... how do you fit one ...... and do modified ones really make a difference to a 2.0TD Freelander? You can get them from a bloke called Roverron, or off e-bay for £25 wondred if they are any good?

Anyone tried one?

No but roverron does know what he is talking about. Look up the MGrover forum. Some of the guys on there are gettin near 200bhp on the dino from a 2.0litre 'L' series. Or sos they say.

Its a straight through pipe - does not have the gold and platinum fins / gauze's which change the emissions into less harmful gases.

I used one on my previous car - made the car slightly noisier (exhaust wise), but it did seem to go better. (Prob got about 5 or 8 BHP increase as I also had a full stainless exhaust system and K&N Air filter).

Steve

i removed the cat element on mine (td4), it was looking quite chocked, if i get time tomorrow i will post a pic
the engine breathes so much better with it removed,and noise levels are about the same
