Hi guys.
I have a 2001 1.4 and I have rummaged through the forums without a clear understanding of how this is done? Especially for my motor. Most of the links in the threads about decats are dead too.
I simply cut the cat out of my previous 1.4 polo and got a straight pipe welded in and it made the world of difference to the throttle response and added a cheaky little sound. This was in South Africa so no one was worried about the polar bears. How much use is a 18yr old cat anyways with 100k miles on it.
My main questions are:
How many cats does it have? Looks like a middle one and one out the manifold?
How do I pass MOT, I am assuming these need to bolt on and off or at least look like they are still in tact ?
Is the O2 sensor affected ?
Thanks in advance and apologies if there is a thread about decat'ing my motor already.
