Decat or not decat?

Hi guys,
I wanna decat my 650hp/880Nm 997.1TT (upgraded VTGs/headers/exhaust/997.2 Ics) it's fitted with 200cells actually, when I did it on my 560hp/820Nm 993TT the result was huge, will it be the same with the 997?

Thx for advices

P.

That's what I think with the 993TT

How was the gain on your 997? Sensible too? Any idea of hp/tq gain?

It's also 100% illegal
Just be careful, the few hp might be more of a pia than it's worth.

I'm waiting for the price of the catbypasses for my exhaust, I think I will do it.
On my 993TT, the guy who check the pollution every 2 years never notice anything... (but my 993TT is from 1997 and the norms were easier, ok)

I am also thinking about doing way w/the high-flo cats and going catless...and to do away with the exhaust as well and just do straight pipes. The louder, the better. I will most likely have to get my ECU reflashed...

I went with a set of these beauties from BBI in Huntington Beach CA to complement my BBI exhaust & headers & love it ,not to loud as there's still mufflers on there just no cats,in fact at idle it's very mild but get on it & it's a whole different story

I can attest the fact that his exhaust sounds flippin' mean.
