   just a straight throw pipe no silencer if so yeah it will sound loud
   
   think it will go slower due to no back pressure

   i just did a pretty cool thing! got a mk1 vtr/s with standard system at the mo. but i can get a mk2 vtr centre section cheap off a scrppy and it acts as a de-cat with the cat bein in the manifold on mk2s all i got to get is a back box and manifold then!

    Can you really get a westcoast to pop flames? So just taking the cat out on my vtr will make it do that?
