I did the same . I couldnt solve the problem of the leakage. Is the gasket metal or some rubber ? Mine is metal and I feel the smeel inside due to leakage.
Good question! I think it might be possible, but in that case I suspect that the lower heat shield must be removed. So, yes, for convenience it was for sure.
Probably not the question for this video. Is it possible that clogged up cat converter decrease power output and sounds like it has massive hole? I have forge mototsport air intake. I wonder, because cat is not cheap .
I have the same car but the nut closest to the radiator I cannot remove I have no leverage you look like you have more room than I do was it only the heat shield you removed?
Yes, it is a sport downpipe with catalytic converter. No issues at all as the catalytic converter does is work properly. A straight downpipe (without catalytic converter) will always give issues during an annual check up. Depending on country regulations ofcourse.
the lower heat shield doesn't need to be removed. If you unscrew it a bit on one side you can lower the downpipe. A replacement downpipe can be fitted from the bottom. Check the detailed downpipe-change video to see where all screws are located.
It is a sport downpipe with catalytic converter. Check the 'downpipe' playlist (czcams.com/video/kSvjJr74UiM/video.html) for more videos including changing the original downpipe, though the work is simply the same.

if clogged up, it will give performance issues in the end for sure.

Check the other videos of the downpipe changes. It should be an easy job if you follow the same steps.
Nice video,the downpipe use a 200cpi sport Cat?any problems for "Mot/ITV" test?

@@THPTuning Thanks for the info, could you please give some info about sports cat? serial number or brand?
Can I use 65mm downpipe wich is for N18? I have P308 with EP6CDT. Thanks
Yes, they should be the same!
how did you unscrew the bolts of the thermal cover of the catalyst before removing it completely

@@THPTuning where IS thé vidéo please
Any idea where the Mass air flow sensor is on these engines?
The 1.6THP 150, 156, 174bhp don't have a MAF, only MAP sensor.
How does the car run without the pre-cat O2 sensor?
Both O2 sensors are present
So what downpipe do you install? it did not looks like the original :-)
