2.2 hdi defap decat advice

Post by ravenhill »

Evening all!

Needs advice on how much of the cat and dpf to remove? Remove all of the filter leaving just the outer casing? Or drill a hole in it? If so what is the best size?

Thanks

Although there are certain ethics regarding removing the FAP, it's a new lease of life for the car.
My car has been 'adjusted' and I have no problems with MOT emissions.
Emptying the canister takes time, it's a filthy job, and before you tackle it I would suggest getting new bolts as the old ones can shear. ( so I'm told :oops: )

Your insurance may become invalid though.
