DoriBoyLV is it possible to pass MOT with decat pipe and manifold?
I have a friendly tester and he tried a genuine emissions test with mine (no cats or boxes in the system, except backbox) it passed the low idle test an just failed the high idle! One Mini Cooper later and I had an MOT certificate :p

So we finally got my decat fitted, and here is a video of how it sounds cold, and please excuse the position of the back box, it needs the arms shortening a bit to fit it snug. its on the to do list.

Also bought some 2 Piece split rims as a project to get on with over winter. There Enkei RS Evolution:
![[Image: IMG_1685.jpg]](http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/Ste17691/Is200/IMG_1685.jpg)
They are in need of TLC but they will look good once im done with them! Just need to figure out what tool i need to split them! ANY ADVICE ABOUT THIS WOULD BE SUPER COOL!
The type of bolt i need to remove:

Currently waiting on a new decat manifold for this months fun, raining it in a bit as christmas is coming! May hopefully get a Sat Nav bought if one comes up at the right price.
Ill get some edits of the car up ASAP, as it currently stands.
Cheers

Rabster coming along mate not sure on splitting the rims normally its by undoing the bolts but never done it myself lol.....
Nah Rab, when he says he needs help he means identifying a socket to undo the bolts.
I think I've found one though. we are just waiting for him to get home from Manchester so we can have a go!

So the major development has been the fact that I have finally split my enkei RS evolution wheels!

So the next step is to remove the dent from one of them and hand them over to some bloke I've never met to refurb them
according to Stix the guy is good so happy days! The last time I posted on here I was getting my decat fitted, here it is as I bought it:

And after my welder had a go at it:

Got that fitted and the car sounds much better, the rear silencer is coming out on the 5th of this month and so that will be a straight pipe all the way back! The new manifold is getting bought for me for Christmas
once that's fitted ill have a full stainless system! 
A quick addition of a couple of stickers:

Thanks to my mate Jonny Elliott for this picture!
Plans for this month are simple, get the silencer removed, get the manifold fitted, fit the short shifter and re tap the password jdm gear knob I'm getting for Xmas
Thanks for reading all

So for those thinking of doing it! It's really worth it! After looking at the silencer it has like a bottle neck in I'm which is an inch and a quater so a huge restriction! I've gone for a straight pipe from the decat to the back box, would could get the turns put in but it costs more!
Lambda sensor I hear you say??? Well, for the time being I don't need it and I prefer not having an engine light glowing back at me! So it's now welded outside of the exhaust on the underside of the car! Fresh air 100% of the time! So it keeps thinking my cats are there and working!
When I'm next under the car lll get a few more pics and will try and sort out a video tomorrow
Cheers
So I got my silencer removed today and funking hell what a difference! Car is a lot louder now! And I still have the standard manifold to swap out so I'm well happy! Best £100 I've spent in a while!
