Sports CAT is WITH a catalytic converter, DE-CAT is without mate. So basically a straight through pipe...

Doubt very much you will get EML light with the Milltek Sports CAT.
DE-CAT might prompt EML light and a de-cat fails MOT as your running the car without a CAT. Sports CAT does not fail MOT...

Difference with Sports CAT and bigger downpipe arrangement will be the turbo will spool up quicker you'll notice even if your car isn't remapped. But remap it and you'll reap the full rewards of a larger downpipe and more free-flowing sports CAT. Bhp gains upto 10 odd bhp to be expected easily using the sports cat and bigger downpipe.

I'm going for a Milltek 200 cell sports cat with 3" downpipe + the Milltek cat back next month. And then getting my LCR mapped to stage 2.

There are 2 Milltek systems now, the old one is quieter, has a letterbox style tailpipe as oppose to the new oval style. And the old system downpipe is 2.5" whereas the new one is 3" - the 3" one is better! [B)]

See AmD's thread on new Milltek..

Hope that helps..
 
thats great tom thanks for that :D yeah going down the stage 2 route here as well
 
Havin no cat is illegal yes but de cat is better for performance dan a sports cat, my Cupra is LPG converted( I can see the frowns already lol) n I dnt need a cat to pass my mot :), if u try both sports cat n de cat u'll never put a cat on ur car again mate
 
Milltek used my car to develope the new Down pipe and sports cat.
I'm useing a 200 cell sports cat and had NO problems with the emissions,
It had it's MOT last week and the car is running a lot cleaner with the 200 cell cat than it did with the OE cat's :D
Also performance has vastly improved :D
 
any vid's?

i really wanna hear it before i consider getting it.

loads of feedback, or quiet?
 
Just got back from amd earlier with new milltek oval exhaust and stage 2 which is running about 270 bhp and 280 lb ft but they said after it adapts in a few days it'll get even quicker :)
The exhaust is great, it's not much louder on idle but just a bit deeper but when you give it some it roars loads, also pops a little bit on the overrun :) it's well worth doing to be honest
