I Am Not Sure Which One To Go For - A De-cat Pipe Or Sport Cat For My Cupra 20vt. I Have A Scorpion Cat Back System On It At The Moment, And When You Let Off The Throttle You Can Hear A Slight Burbling But I Want It Louder, Is It The Cat Thats Suppressing The Sound.
I Have Been Told The Sport Cat Will Not Make It Any Louder But Will It Burble Any Different, Anyone Know How Much Louder The De-cat Pipe Would Be?
Any Help Would Be Appreciated.

decat pipe will flag an engine management light

if you want it louder, just take the back box off.

Or, get a big dp and race cat(no engine lights + some bhp) remove the middle box/silencer so you'v got 2.5" all the way back to a back box of ur choice. That should be plenty loud!! ;)

mork you sound boring whats the point in having a nice car if you dont want it to stand out everyone on here might aswell be driving a volvo with an r badge fast as **** but just a pavin slab on wheels. bling and be noticed is the way forward in life if your not noticed your left behind. big exhaust big intercooler big wheels decat louder big exhaust just to add to the loud pedal experiance a bit nore.

I prefer the more subtle side of modifying, that means having to take two looks, before noticing that somethings different, and then admiring it, rather than having a big exhaust the size of Dartmouth tunnel, and louder than a jumbo jet, to drag attention.

Subtle styling, and modding, and rapid speed is the way forward

agreed, they dont notice you until you have flown past them and pulled 10 car lengths.

Reminds me of the new Golf Advert "The Power of Understatement"

A 3" Dp and Race cat will make it louder but give you performance the same time
