    Right,

    Thanks every one for the help.

    After all your info, and much consideration. Also I am fairly confident that the person doing my remap is highly skilled, I am:

    *gutting the precat. leaving all lambda sensors in place.
    *Leaving the main middle cat alone.
    *Removing the middle silencer.
    *leaving the standard backbox and tailpipe.

    Mine doesnt have a DPF, so no worries about that. Then after i have finished the exhaust mods i will get the car remapped.

    Wish me luck, does this sound good?

    What will be the issue or is it just a case of the map will be all wrong if there even is one one it?

    Only fit a precat decat with a hybrid as the standard turbo will over spool too quickly and go beyond its limit unless its been mapped to suite which isn't ideal anyway as the boost limit has to come in earlier to catch it.

    Have a look at the many threads in this section loads of detail and lists of what can be done. Also might be a good idea to create a signature so people know which body you have as hatch/estate/signum have different set ups as you'll know from seeing it in the parts lists so advice can change a little on the exhaust side of things depending what you have.

    Highly unlikely it will be passing the MOT if it does these days.
