Decat will lose performance bla bla bla. Lol. Just try and see. |
Decat is illegal in the UK as the 180 wont pass the emmisons test with the cat removed.
Will fail the MOT & also fail any VOSA / Police roadside spotchecks.

That pretty much goes without saying, people decat for either performance gains or the sound. Generally no one gives a toss about emissions when they fit one.
