That background noise in the shop was so annoying, but the last part made up for it 😉 A cat's internals are like a honeycomb and when it breaks down the particles block that comb and massively restrict airflow hence lack of power. Great decision to go for a 200 cell cat and 3 inch down pipe which obviously increases airflow and power, but may I suggest you opt for a 3 inch pipe from cat back as you got 3 inches of airflow running into 2 inches of back pipe which will effect the airflow, just a thought😉

@@CarFocused There's an old saying that get as much air in the front and as much out the back = more BHP But as I said there's a buffer going from 3 to 2 inch pipes. I know it sounds trivial but it's the same as having the internal ports polished on your plenum it all helps with airflow. 😉

Think I’m having the same issue with my st225, was you getting a slight misfire when stationary aswell as the loss of power?. Mine has kind of muffled the sound I have the rotten egg smell and when I ease the power in it’s fine, when I boot it tho it’s down on power.
