DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Looking to get some HFCs fitted. Have had a price for new Berks and waiting on price for new Kinetix (does anyone know how much). Just checking on here first in case anyone has anything they are getting rid of. Quote
Keyser Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Looking to get some HFCs fitted. Have had a price for new Berks and waiting on price for new Kinetix (does anyone know how much). Just checking on here first in case anyone has anything they are getting rid of. Have a look at this viewtopic.php?f=62&t=51153&p=744126&hilit=Standard+cats#p744126 was going to get them re-tested when I get a remap done but thas after the track day Quote
DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 That's a bit worrying, I thought that there would be no problem passing the MOT with these, maybe they are broke. Would the fact that the car is SC have any impact on the emsissions? Quote
Greekman Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 My 08 with berks and nismo exhaust passed the emissions only just...and that was after the uprev. Took ages to manage to keep emissions with in limit for a whole minute or so. Quote
DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 Seems to me like these HFCs aren'y doing what they are supposed to be doing. May aswell go decat and save funds if it aint going to pass the MOT. Quote
DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 Wondered when you would pop up Wasso. £495 though, plus decats or HFCs!! Quote
Steady Zeddy Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I'd be more inclined to go with reasonated DeCats and just stick back on the Cats for the MOT. For all the talk about HFC's on here - they'll never get close to the flow characteristics of a decat. My SC (now Keysers) jumped 20bhp from a HFC to a Decat (granted you won't see anything like that jump on an NA). Quote
DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 I understand what you are saying but would rather just make the change and have done with it. Swapping things back and forward to make sure I pass an MOT is just unnecessary hassle IMO. Ideally would be good to create a few extra bhp but like you say on a NA it is gonna be nowehere near what you are talking, maybe 5 or 6 at best which I doubt I would even notice. If the HFCs are not going to get me through an MOT I will stick with the cats and may get a better Y pipe to get some sound and flow improvements. Quote
Wasso Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Don't forget the sound Then there's the weight saving too - those cats are heavy!! Here's a pic before and after just to tease you even further. Quote
DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 Gentlemen!!! What are you trying to do to me? and my Bank Balance!! Quote
