Hey hey,

My car had to go for the APK test here, it's obligated/needed in the netherlands on yearly base. if u don't past the test you cant drive your car, it a crime. My car couldn't past the test because my catback system was not good, and de catalysator was removed so the co2 emission was to high.
So i made a new catback system 63mm (2,5"), i bought a custom racecat from Invidea, and a 120mm (4,75") muffler from Invidea. here are the pictures. Ohhh, i pased the test so i can drive it a whole year again!!

Uninstalling:






As u can see is my old catback system totally wrecked and damaged

Installing:















finished and paint

And did you feel any gains?

Can I ask where did you do it and how much did it cost you?
I'm looking to get one done end of the year, still need to find a good adress.

That's beautiful. It must be quite a bit loud. That catalytic converter is small. Good system you got there mang.

The sounds before this set up was like 148,5 db, only 95db allowed here, when i have my car back i will test it again. because when its to loud they take your papers of the car till everything is fixed
