Annoyingly my de cat hasn't sealed quite properly, was fine on te test drive last night but this morning I get a "blowing through a piece of grass noise" every time I accelerate.
Im hoping it will "soot up" in time.
I did my best to clean up the remaining exhaust faces but they were a mess tbh.
Mine did that at high revs for a week or so when I changed mine, haven't heard it since

Cheers. I'm sure it will soot up in no time, in the meantime the local dogs are getting a hard time!
I've got a DJ decat on mine, and I do think its a well made piece of kit, my only critisism is the sold ally shims that are supposed to be gaskets, they obvioiously don't compress so make a losy gasket, the one I fitted to my mates was a pest to seal, when it came to doing my own I got a couple of proper exhaust gaskets binned the ally shims and it was fine

Result ! Seen the guy I bought the truck off today, he couldnt believe how nice it was looking.
Tomorrow I'm selling him the tyres that were fitted to it when I bought it !
Happy days, few quid back is always a winner.

I try my best, it looks proper gash this morning in daylight, jet washing it in the dark hasn't really cleaned it as well as I thought it had !
3 jet washes later in still not happy ......
Yarwell near Peterborough Manraj, 70 miles from me but omg what a site it's huge !!!!
My usual club also has another play site near there.
Looks a good day, let me know when ur out again
Will do (it's very rarely tbh, need to get the RR done for some proper fun) Tonka was there too.
He was there indeed, dragging his truck through some trees, putting a big dent all the way down the side...silly boy. We did come 15th out of 50 in the punch challenge though All the landy boys were getting upset because they didn't have rear or centre lockers, and were struggling on sections we were walking over Don't know if you agree Dingle, but the most impressive thing I've found out about the L200 is its ability to climb ridiculous slopes. Maybe down to its length, unsure, but impressive. Not so good at tight twisty sections....with trees....at a 45 degree angle....
