I said to a mate it could be a blocked cat and he said nah it'd be runnin real bad.. and I said it kind of is.. I cant afford an exhaust system at the moment or new cat, so im just goin to exhaust place tomorrow and they gonna cut the cat out and put straight pipe in.. that'll do the trick yeah? Until I upgrade with tune etc

it'll run even worse on boost with no cat and no tune to suit the situation... potential destructive overboost, so don't boost it until it's tuned.

yes, I can see that... but too much boost is significantly worse than no boost at all, in terms of potential damage to both parts and your back pocket.

 

If he's willing to do it, though, as part of the tune process, then there's no point turning him down, other than to save some money :idunno:

anyway, the car will run with no cat, so if you just get him to do that, and then drive it softly to the tuner, who isn't just an exhaust place, then that'd be what I'd be doing :)
