Removeing the small silencer from the exhaust system!!!

[Tiger Magnet]

Hi guys

Thinking of removing the small silencer from my exhaust system to make the car sound a bit more sporty. I have already removed the resinator from the air intake system which has made a nice deeper sounding difference when accelerating. Just want it a fraction louder as is too quiet at the moment. Would fitting in a straight through pipe instead of the small silencer be ok??

you mean the catalytic converter?

Most aftermarket stainless exhausts do away with this silencer anyway so it'll be fine. Personally though I'd just get a Mongex (or a Janspeed if you want something a little more raucous) and be done with it rather than mucking about with the stock system.

UK cars never had a CAT, i removed it on my old stock exhaust, made no difference from what i can remember.
