What is the difference between a sport cat and a decat?
Sport Cat Downpipes
Catalytic Converter Included: Sport cat downpipes include a high-flow catalytic converter. This helps reduce exhaust emissions while still allowing for increased flow compared to standard catalytic converters.
Emissions Compliance: They are designed to be street-legal in many areas, as they still filter harmful emission, though regulations can vary by region.
Performance: Sport cat downpipes strike a balance between performance and emissions compliance. They offer a noticeable increase in horsepower and torque compared to stock downpipes, but might not be as free-flowing as decat downpipes.
Sound: The sport cat downpipes provide a moderate increase in exhaust sound over the stock system.
Decat Downpipes
No Catalytic Converter: Decat downpipes eliminate the catalytic converter entirely, resulting in zero filtration of exhaust gases.
Higher Performance: They allow for maximum exhaust flow, which can result in significant performance gains, particularly for turbocharged engines.
Emissions Non-Compliance: Decat downpipes are typically illegally for street use in most regions due to their complete lack of emissions control. They are generally indented for track use or off-road racing.
Emissions Non-Compliance: They produce a louder and more aggressive exhaust note.
The de-cat exhaust version is available for motorsport and off-road use exclusively worldwide.
