Fitting T1R Decat
Finally getting round to fitting my decat pipe!
Couple of questions first though, sorry if they are a bit daft!
1 Do i need to replace the domed gasket at the forward end, between cat and exhaust, for use with my decat?
2 Do i need to utilise and if so do i need to replace the rear circular gasket between cat and exhaust for use with my decat? Bit confused as a metalic gasket has been supplied at this end that forms the profile of the joint. Do i just use this? Also do i need any sort of compound to seal any of the joins or are the gaskets suficient?
3 Should the forward bolts through the springs be replaced and is the torque setting 22 Nm / 16 lbf ft ?
4 Is the O2 sensor torque setting 44 Nm / 33 lbf ft ?
Any help much appreciated
