Mark_Dj Re: What Pre Cat for my Turbo? Or just get one from Courtenay Sport? I would try and fit this myself but I am not sure if I would get it to seal right. I can't seem to access Courtenay Sport's web site notsure.gif . The link seems dead dunno..
vocky Re: What Pre Cat for my Turbo? lmf = £115 and looks much better quality http://www.lmfvauxhall.co.uk/store/home.php?cat=1573
JohnnyN Me being me, I would call Mark Watts tomorrow to ask him what price he'll do you one for. The site is down at the moment. I have seen their pipes and they are very good quality. I'm not a big fan of LMF personally but each to their own.
Mark_Dj Cheers. I was going to check out them til I noticed the site was down. I can't wait til I have got one and fitted 🙂
Mark_Dj I am tempted to get this one below only because it's local and they will fit it. They charge £40 for fitting. It it worth getting or is the quality not the best? Any info would be great 🙂. They say it takes an hour to fit. They also have an in house Rolling Road. Cheers http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... TQ:GB:1123 I have just noticed the picture is the same as the Cobra one
sdbutler10 its a pipe made of metal lol. they are all as good as each other. all made the same and prob the smae metal lol. if the one on ebay can fit it as well then sounds good. and they give a 25yr warranty u cant go wrong tbh.
MikeS ring road runner up and ask for prices i go with a scorpion or cobra tbh u seen my experiences with pre cats lol but i dont think u got much choice ?
Mark_Dj I think the one they sell is a Cobra, same picture as the Cobra one. What would they have to do to my car to fit it? Would the bumper have to come off? They said it takes an hour to fit. Cheers
JohnnyN I would have thought that it would come with the relavent gaskets?? Your not meant to use fire paste or anything like that before the cat as it can go into the cat and block it. I really would have thought that the gaskets would be supplied.
Mark_Dj They might be mate, this is what they say in the add........... "THIS ITEM COMES WITH ALL THE FITTING SO YOU JUST BOLT THIS TO YOUR CAR" http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... IBSA:UK:11
Turbo_Shane I would like a de-cat pipe for my turbo! but a couple of people have said to me the coupes dont have this section that you can take off?? I have no idea.. lol. Is this true!??
Mark_Dj You will be able to see from the top of the car with the bonnet up if you have a pre cat, it has the first lambda sensor going to it. You can tell the difference with a pre cat pipe fitted 🙂
