172 with 182 mani and de cat - Questions

[jonesyFX]

Probably been asked a lot so apologies in advance, please link me as I'm at work so can't sit and search at the moment.

Basically I have had a custom exhaust fitted straight through from the cat back, and I am thinking of de-catting it, would this be worth it in terms of performance? I'm guessing it will be loud though haha.

Also if I was to put on a 182 manifold would it be a chew on for not much gain?

The reason for wanting to do this is I eventually want matched inlets etc and a remap (probably pops and bangs)

Cheers

don't bother with the manifold, not really worth it

Ok mate cheers. With a de cat my exhaust would be straight thru from manifold, could this cause me any issues and would i lose any performance?
