Daryl Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 Disaster just heard from garage, the flange the centre pipes connecting onto isnt in good enough shape to connect onto, what part is behind that? Hes saying it's not the cat piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Which end? Towards the engine or towards the rear of car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 One end connects to the back box that's fine it's the other end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on this diagram that is the front Cat. Bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I am not sure but you may be able to get away with a decat pipe there, cheaper. Someone with should be able to advise on this and if you did decat this section would you need a map? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 That looks like a decat version to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daryl Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 It's that part I need now, garage struggling to source it . Gonna hafto find one... gutted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 What you said it was the other end. I thought you ordered this part already. That would be a better option if fooked though. Center section with resonator/or without much cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 Yeah the centre sections the part I just got , I'm struggling to find that rear cat part none on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I thought the part with the cat in was bad as well. I must of lost the thread somewhere. I cannot see the part you bought having anything to do with the engine light as it is after the sensor. The Cat part might affect it which you now have get, is that right?

Daryl Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 Yes that's the latest part I need now need to find one asap not having much luck though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 https://scoobyparts.com/subaru-impreza-wrx-sti-exhausts/exhausts-for-impreza-wrx-sti-01-05/hayward-and-scott-2-5-inch-cat-pipe-new-age-impreza Think this is the right bit like your post earlier, this also says MOT friendly and implies it does not require a map. Someone with better knowledge must be able to help you. I feel like it is a bit like the blind leading the blind today. lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROSSCOSM Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 That sucks mate I dont think you will need it mapped like it wont run bad or anything but not sure if you will get the cat code coming up. If its not too bad its worth asking a exhaust shop or welder to weld it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROSSCOSM Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 My second cat is removed but mines is mapped and is mot friendly. Can you get a picture of your exhaust I know its not easy mate, maybe previous owner took your cat out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROSSCOSM Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Looks like siluro found a solution for you but does say it dosent need a map there. Maybe cause its after the downpipe and the sensor is still in place. Your call daryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Just a point what's the rest like. It is xmas and as a bundle it may work out cheaper in the long run. I do feel for you mate. Not the best start to Subaru life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 Cats defo still their rossco, seen it the other day, not sure if I wanna remove the cat if the codes gonna come up.
