    The main cat was dirty (not been driven for a few months), after a bit of high rpm driving it cleared out and passed the emissions without problem. Paid for my own MOT - not seen a dealer since the modifications started!
  2. dark_is200
    failed on emissions, no other problems though

    Try sqplus www.sqplus.com - they had them in stock and delivered next day when i ordered mine.

    think it depends on your cd player - if you have the old style player with the CD at the bottom then just the harness is ok, if you have the new one the rewiring is required.

    TDi removed the cats when they did the supercharger and exhaust manifolds hi, did TDi take out the main cat too ? nope, still got the main cat in, i have an HKS high flow cat waiting for fitting to replace the standard one

    i have had the precats removed, didn't notice any change to the exhaust sound. emissions are not a problem - i had an MOT a few months ago and passed without any problems at all so the main cat is ok on its own. These were the apporimxate numbers for the MOT, can't remember what the tests measure but anyway: Test 1 Pass = 1.5% mycar =0.3% Test 2 Pass = 200ppm mycar = 68ppm I will be changing the main cat to an HKS sports model shortly (just waiting to get it fitted)

    i know of two is200's that have had problems with the cats' after very few miles, both of which were supercharged - think the extra heat causes them to break up
  12. dark_is200
    if your car is supercharged the higher EGT's get through the cats much more quickly.

    How about the top secret wing?
  14. dark_is200
    could be interesting!

    Sorry have to disagree strongly, you dont even notice, providing you are using the double DIN set up, I have had it in the car for 7 months now with my set up and I never even notice the different finish, people that get in the car don't notice either unless you point it out Si thats what steve told me as well so seems like it will look ok when fitted
  18. dark_is200
    did you mean neither?

    If you go gold there is a group buy for the supercharger http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...ST&f=63&t=5659& for 2500+VAT from TDi www.tdi-plc.com/is200.html Benefits of the supercharger are more power, more torque, higher top speed (if you have an automatic), lower 0 - 60. If you want to get more power later you can get new manifolds, intake, boost upgrade etc.. If you are planning on very high HP later you may be better off getting a turbo instead but other than that well worth the money.

    Do you mean something like the dash tray? http://www.i-m-racing.com/aldastrayis.html
  21. dark_is200
    you can put in an optional piece that reduces the noise level

    i'd love to know how you found that site :D :P
  24. dark_is200
    if this really works i'm never parking my car anywhere that you have to leave the key or any valet etc. since it's a really easy way to copy the key and steal the car at a later date without having to break in to the car or draw attention to yourself.
