  1. Yes as above. I used a aftermarket cat on an old aerodeck I had to get through an MOT.  It worked just fine. I dont think the life expectancy is very good however. Will likely fail again quickly.

     

    As far as aftermarket parts go. Generally I don't know of an issue. 

    But I would 100 percent use only NGK/NTK lambda sensor. Cheap lambda is not a good idea.

    Ahh, that’s pretty much what I thought it would have been for. Shame it doesn’t bolt right up though.

    Still, have to let me know how it is when it’s on, see if there’s any noticeable difference. By looking at it surely it would brace the front up a little more if anything?

    Yeah defo. I baught it hoping it would help/stop torque steer. Car bloody changes lane for you sometimes lol.

  3. They will all fit to the engine of course. If there was an issue it was that the flange onto the cat was sometimes couple inches short or welded at a different angle. adjustable decat pipes the solution, or cut and reweld flange if you want to retain the cat.

    I mean.....that's just pure Honda porn right there! Looks amazing, did she have the 1000cc injectors before? If not have they took powerup much?

    No these are new. Had mitsubishi injectors before.

    The 1000's don't directly make more power. But will be able to deliver more fuel when crank up the boost. Which will make more power.

    But also they should have a better spray patter too which should help with fuel economy and response.  This setup definately feels more responsive low down.  Could be down to the injectors and raised compression.

  5. I dont have first hand experience but somethings to bare in mind..

    Jdm ECUs usually have knock sensor circuit so will show CEL on UK engine.

    It will also have a 110 mph speed limiter.

     

    I'm sure it could work but I personally think a custom map would be better.

    Not sure mate as not sure what wire you tapped into/ changed the feed too? Did any fuses pop (both in the interior fuse box and the one in the engine bay)? Did you here anything pop/get any burning/smoke?

    Beat me too it @Dave :)

  7. I may be wrong but if you don't want it to be really low I think your quite limited. As BC and Meister R seem to be the only ones doing correct spring rate etc for these cars. 

    Seems the cheaper ones intended for the eg and ek sit really low as much less junk in the trunk area on those cars so to speak :)
