snakey135 Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 Thats right, i spend far too much time on this forum haha!! So need to be sporting ghe brand eh!! Lol also i DO think the red 5's go well anyway IMO lol Also got a rattle that occurs under car whilst climbing hills at just below 2000 revs... Has been there since i got the car but always thought it was a heat shield etc.. Since i got exhaust done i know all shields are out of ghe way but i DID notice a slight damp patch behind the cat???My car failed emissions too so could this rattle, the damp and emissions fail all lead to needing a new cat???

snakey135 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 What's your guys advise about getting it de-catted??Would it fail emissions even more than just having a duff cat lol???Or would it be better to just get new cat? Might use it as an excuse to get new manifold too!! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakey135 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Well mine failed the emissions when i first got her but unsure why?? Ive changed ECT Sensor but not sure what else will improve it??How do you mean if its 'running well' how do i tell... as its the first civic ive owned so was never sure how to expect it to run in the first place?!?!???.... It does KILL fuel but i blame that on my VTEC addiction lol!What did sports cat set you back as opposed to normal replacement cat or de cat???Sorry!! The noob in me is coming out now PMSL!!

snakey135 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Hmm hard to tell ive never clocked it!! Ive just filled tank up couple days ago and reset my milage so ill let you know in a couple weeks how it lasts!!Right ok... Would a replacement cat (not sports cat)cost less than getting it de cat? Eventually want new mani too so whats peoples opinions on what mani to go for?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
