I have a 1.4sri and I want to get some more power. Will removing the cat give me much more? I will be doing it mysely to keep costs down, will it cost me much to get the pipe.
What other cheap power gains are available?
As you can see cash is tighter than a ducks butt. So it would be a bonus if any of you could give some advice.

i only did it cos my cat had broke and i didn't wanna spend £200 on another
if anything its fcuked my car up, was told by a garage that the engine should be re-tuned to compenstate for the loss of cat, cos it works on a loop system
