Decat-ing your stock exhaust will improve your power. It would be like having a very short 4-1 manifold. However, as you did not specify just what car you are driving, hard to say whether removing the cat would cause an MIL for the engine to light up. Most likely the oxygen sensor would indicate lean mixture in the exhaust. If you have more budget, I'd suggest changing the entire extractor to either a 4-2-1 or 4-1. Having used both, I'd say they both improve power. If you love revving the engine as I do, a 4-1 is better and the torque peaks at high RPMs. If however you wish to tune your car for better pick up, go with a 4-2-1. Either way, you won't regret.

Btw, if you are keen, the Works Eng exhaust is pretty decent. I am using it right now. Not too expensive too for a full set.

Hi guys,

How many of you that own Protons, namely Satrias or Satria GTIs have had to change your wheel bearings before?

I am currently experience symptoms of worn out wheel bearings but whenever i send it to the shop there are no problems probably because the bearings haven't been heated up to where they start to display problems that i've been experiencing.

Problems:

Steering wheel judders when turning left on hard cornering.
Feels like the right front wheel is slightly loose...
