Hey guys I'm looking into making my exhaust sound a hell of a lot better anyone know if I can put straight pipe on or should I just remove the rear box ?
 
If you want to **** up the engine fuel management, get a ticket for over loud exhaust and lose power then plod on... Why *do* you think manufacturers spend years perfecting systems to be tuned together and millions of £££s doing so ?

What a rubbish reply... Lets never bother modifying anything then, manufacturers always make everything perfectly to everyone's tastes..
 
Don't remove the rear box...............it will be too loud.
Some exhaust modifiers remove the secondary cat(s) and the resonator for a better sound.
You can also remove the secondary cat(s), cut them open and gut the innards then re-weld and refit them .
 
I'm 22 I love loudness and just to annoy this guy who thinks it's a bad idea to mess with the car I might just weld the diff

Have to agree with a previous comment....a well rubbish reply :dk:

Manufacturers do spend millions on their engines, etc, but mainly to meet legislation laws that limit emissions from their engines, this usually results in engines that are tuned well below their maximum output capabilities.

The OP will do no harm whatsoever by 'modifying' his exhaust system and the fuel management system will self-correct any out of parameter fueling as a result.

Remember if you remove the cat it will fail the mot unless you put it back in for the test

The plan was more to open the cat and bypass it plus I have a year to put cat back on
