Yea the noise on the motorway could be an issue for me this is the bringing it all together part, ive already got an aem induction system and airtec intercooler so the plan is the sports or decat then go for the map

Hatch I would go decat. Clubman I would go sportcat
I ran both on a FJCW clubman I much preferred the sport cat the decat only lasted a month !

I had a decat on my R56 GP. Loved the sound that it gave from the car. But as Ali says it may be a bit much if your using your car daily and a sports cat would give you the best of both worlds

Friend has just got a load of work done on his clubby including decat and it is a nice noise with standard exhaust

I'm happy with my Sports Cat/Downpipe. Sounds nice (I think!) and not loud enough to be annoying or attract unwanted attention...

After reading through my cars history I've discovered that it has the pre-cat section removed in the cat, has anyone else had this done I've read a few posts on sites saying it increases the flow by quite a bit.
Greatfull for any help. E mailed the previous owner for info but had no reply, a guy called Colin Gerrish dunno if he was on here before.
