lol you guys are gonna get pinned like eeeeeeeeeeeeervy day

Full stainless, hiflow cat only :P I rarely drive anywhere, only to work, which is a 10minute drive

Who did the exhaust?

PM me if you prefer, I'd like to have twin stainless steel and fix my twin muffler while I'm at it.

decat mang... mine is a cat shell with the ends cut off and a 3" pipe through it.

cant possibly get fine for it as it 100% looks the same as a cat

have heard of them using a temperature gun to see if its a real cat or not. also doesnt it sound hollow when tapped compared to a normal cat?

with the pipe welded into a shell it doesn't sound hollow.

if they hit it with a temp gun the best they could ascertain is that it's a cat that has broken over time and give an EPA - to which you would NEVER turn up to with the decat.

they can't actually PROVE anything....

of course there are about 600 other things they could pick on.... lol

yeh but it could be a f**ked cat.... they cant prove you were intentionally running without a working cat unless they drop it....

although, the way labour is running this state i wouldn't be surprised if vicpol will be issued with toolkits soon

either way that is pretty much a thing of the past now as a copper can just tick a box on a NOU that epa's you, and ANY car can be given an NOU without much hassle so they don't need to bother checking things like that.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
