i have a k reg 1992 mx3 v6 and was thinking of decat is this okay as been told different, some people say decat pre 92 some after 92.
will a decat be okay with my car??

-
if your car was made before august 1992 then it does not legally need a cat
-
so what does it mean for my car.
it is a 92 k
will decattin it mess up the emissions or anything.
or would it run better???
-
look on the V5 to see when it was made, the emissions test has always been there, it was putting a cat on that was mandatory
-
I DONT MIND ABOUT THAT COS I WILL PUT THE CAT BACK ON TO MOT'D WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS IF DECATIN WILL MUCK UP THE ENGINE OR EMISSIONS SO WHEN I DO PUT THE CAT BACK ON TO BE MOT'D WILL IT STILL BE ALRIGHT?
-
IT WILL BE THE SAME IF YOU PUT THE CAT BACK ON
-
just looked at the v5c and the car was first registered on 01 09 1992. so i suppose this means that the cat has to be put back on for the mot?
-
I think the date is on or before the 1st august your ok, but dont quote me on that :?
-
so i may be able to remove the cat and not have to replace it?
-
Maybe, the easy way to find out is to take the car for the MOT, if it fails on the cat/emissions then put the cat back on and take it for its free retest :wink:
