Under my disco with a rain mac!
Yes, got the decat pipe delivered this morning. So under the Landy i dived, the old one came off nice and easy with the aid of a nut gun and jacking the body up as advised! It took more time getting the exhaust banjo mount off!
New one went on with no problems other than had to grind the flange down on one of the nuts as it sat tighter to the pipe than the original.
Took her out with both mods now done, EGR and De-Cat, well worth the hasle, picks up alot better and feels alot more free flowing now.:)
Got to think of some more area's were i can play now, as running out!

Nice to read a positive thread in here of a job going right!! lol.. decatting mine and egr blanking it in new year..
 
doing away with the centre box gives it a bit more power but also makes it a bit more noisier though and removing the removing of the fan does aswell.

De-ERG on mine Wednesday thanks to saxokid18 helping me out, then Thursday had a full stainless exhaust system fitted with (decat), boy does it make a difference sounds really well too not quiet Subaru loud but enough to sound powerfull.

You will have to pop round and let me have a listen before I do mine :) What system did you go for?

Yep took my fan off to for the winter, wait and see how it goes for the next summer.

If you do take it off remember its a left hand thread, the opposite way to normal and you need a proper spanner for the job.
