My TD5 is at MID engineering having a warped manifold sorted as well some problem finding on the ABS module. Hoping for an update today!! Strong people are harder to kill and generally more useful!

LRA,

You won't be disappointed with the latter.

Just wonder perhaps "Why didn't I do it sooner?" If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

Yeah, I've just been waiting for service time as it's easier than crawling around underneath myself.

I'm not expecting to turn it into a rocket ship, to be honest. It'll just be nice if the turbo spools up a bit quicker lower down the rev range. Darren

You haven't got a cat pipe as it wasn't a requirement prior to, I think, 2002. Basically, I'm having the same non-cat down pipe fitted to mine as yours came with from the factory. Darren

I still have my Cat and middle silencer under my 90. Does it really make a difference removing them?

And for the sound, it is nice but is it still legal?
