yh id want one.... wanna know what the performance gain is too???
i lied it was thursday 30th i think....

was at work then as well lol - i work in bristol during the weekdays :(

The performance gain on a catback will probs be 1-2bhp at most i would of thought. need a bigger bore downpipe from the turbo and a sports cat to get more bhp (could see anywhere from 10-20bhp based on manufacturers quotes)

isnt there a response gain in pickup of revs involved thought it was something to do with back-pressure???

may be a little one, wont be much. I think you can haev a sports cat without a stage 2 remap, but i think it just throws an ecu emission error? (im sure someone will correct me if im wrong)

the 007p is a great lil thing, hasn't missed a beat yet and ive had it on since february. I've got a bmc cda and you can hear a nice hiss when taking your foot off the accelerator from it now, nothing chavy though. Was easy as to fit as well. took 10mins in the dark with an inspection lamp

if you remap, you dont HAVE to get one, but its advised as the standard bosch one wont last a great deal of time alledgadly

The forge 007p wont give you the biggest hiss in the world, but its very reliable, and wont through any errors on your ecu. I've heard that some atmospheric valves can cause ecu errors, however I'm not sure whether this is fact or not

(Sorry to hi-jiack the tread ccc!)

I've been running my hybrid k03s on a standard plastic DV for the past week :lol: that hasn't skipped a beat either, but I don't think it will last much longer given the boost it receives. Just as well my 007p turned up today I guess. I had a 007p before, but changed it, and now I've changed back cos I prefer it to anything else I've run :p

Also, I had a downpipe and sports cat on just a stage 1 map. As long as it has the bosses for the lambda sensors to fit back into, it should be fine I think :)
