What sort of power increase, if any, do you get if you take the cat off a 1.8?

Funny you should mention this...

I had a cat replacement pipe made up just yesterday for my 1.8, you can tell the difference straight away, I would say give a few horses, nothing specatcular, but every little helps ;)

i think, combined with a decent exhaust, about 5bhp can be gained on a 1.8 bravo

Not a lot then but better than nothing. I've got a custom built stainless system from the cat back and have increased the fueling so may get a little more than a standard car. I'll give it a go and let you know.
p.s. how are you planning to get around the emission test on the MoT with no cat. I'm running mine on lpg for everyday use and only use petrol when I race it so I shouldnt have a problem
 
50p says he puts the cat on before the MOT. lets just hope he doesn't get roadside tested!

Yeah, I've always wondered if people who do that. Removing and replacing exhausts all the time isnt my idea of fun. Too much hassle in my opinion.
 
LOL, I didnt have a cat to put on, so took it anyway, and it failed :( only on CO emissions though, the rest were fine.

New cat has been ordered...£45 +VAT :)

Mark, I am selling the decat now if you are interested?

£45 is cheap! How much do you want for that pipe and where abouts are you?
