Would a de-cat pipe work on a HGT..............

No idea about what power it can take, depends what you do. I'd be tempted to have the bottom end apart and stress relieve the crank and rods just to make sure. New bolts etc.. as well.

Should be good for quite a bit more, its usually bearings and stuff that go first unless you really do something silly.

I think the gearbox is more of a worry knowing fiat.

I'll have to give them a ring, I can feel mine running lean at high revs. I need a new exhaust sometime so supersprint + manifold might be on the cards.

Rob i was just looking on the bravo guide and i came across the "Fiat Forum Meet 1st March 2003" pictures, i see you have finished your interior, it looks mint mate, well done. It certanly is show car material to say the least.

the dash is leather as well isnt it ? i am guessing it wasent sprayed.

I think you're thinking about Allan Wheeldons old car m8 as I havent really done any thing to my dash 'yet'.

Mine has a red and cream Recaro interior Allans was just cream. With a painted dash

Pics of mine

as u can see I've not done any thing to the dash yet. just put the TV and nitrous controller in position.

I've got big plans for the dash, it should be finished some time around october.

ahh yeah mate you are right i am sorry. i saw that he had a red/white dash and just kind of assumed it was yours, i did notice that the custom speaker mounts had gone and i thought you may have just upgraded the speakers or something, lol

sorry for the confusion, and thanks for reposting those pics, i forgot just how tasty the leather retrim you have is.

Very interesting Yogis!

We have the same 4 branch exhaust manifold and decat.

The back box and filter could be the difference though.

And remember that mine was miss firing too so you can add a few more BHP on to my total once thats sorted.
Putting new plugs and leads on tomorrow
