evilscorp Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Hi guys, just wondering what people have or what the ebay decats are like, im not after something expensive like berks so just a cheap stainless steel pipe basically! Got the sensor fix plug things from ZMANALEX. £100-150 is around what im willing to pay. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've heard my car i'm guessing and it does have a fair amount of rasp and rattle after fitting decats. The ebay numbers willl probs be unbranded japspeed stuff. Alex would probs sell you a much better set for around the same cash. I would defo advise going for the resonated decats for everyday driving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilscorp Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Didn't know Alex sold them, wasn't sure if i should go for the resonated ones or not, hopefully but August I will have a shed to drive to work and be my workhorse (Citroen ZX) and I feel mine is too quiet at the moment, I did like the sound of yours tho Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 haha alex may have a couple of sets of preowned ones laying about. I'd drop him a pm tbh. Mines are unresonated and i love the sound but its not for everyone. It doesnt make it drony or that but you get a slight metally rattle noise when slowing down. Craig bought almost the exact same set up except the y-pipe and his sounds good aswell. Mines is a bit more bedded in due to having lots of hours getting its hole ripped in and choking it up with carbon so its started to deepen. I bought the japspeed cats as they were cheap and cheerful and if they crack etc i'll just buy new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodatcrashing Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I borrowed a cheapo unresonated ebay decat to test the sound and it was awful. It also had the flange holes opened up because of the poor fitment. Im sure your budget will stretch to a second hand resonated one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I can sell you a set of Berks for £180, not that expensive, tried and tested by a racing company and not cheap tat that will need replacing. Think they have a built in CEL fix too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
