Golfgirl Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 After 4 months of tripping over the box on my landing, Saturday afternoon finally saw me fitting Milltek hi-flow sports cats. Well, I say "me" but in fact I was only the mechanics assistant With the car up on the lift, 6 nuts on the flange to remove and a clamp onto the Milltek centre section, disconnect the pair of oxygen sensors and the standard cats could be removed. I polished my flanges to allow a perfect seal between the cats and the downpipe using new gaskets. We wriggled the sports cats into place, tightened it all up and then it was time for a road test The car feels more responsive, picks up better and is slightly louder and a bit more "throaty". There's more popping and crackling on the overrun too Click these 2 pics for short video clips: Next project is the fitting of Schrick Cams and another remap to suit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbucket Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 sounds great hope you gave the silencers a polish while you were under there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mook Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Good call Claire You've got an extra 8bhp on tap now you've got the cats fitted. Get those Schrick cams sorted out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfgirl Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 It's in the process of being sorted Probably going for REVO this time round... And no I didn't polish the silencer Helf - probably should have done but there's always another day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 I know jimmy_p runs a Revo remap (without the cams) and DeckedR32 runs a Revo remap with the cams and they're both happy people with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmyp Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 [ QUOTE ] I know jimmy_p runs a Revo remap [/ QUOTE ] Certainly do, i would definitly go for the stage 2 remap if running the high flow cats aswell, makes such a difference compared to the standard one (which is very good anyway) as it takes into account of the cats and or air take...
