I am considering getting the manifold and ecu flash upgrade based on the positive reviews posted.
So silly question number 1.
My plus 4 is a 110 edition with the sports exhaust 'cat back' freebe option.
Does this mean the car already has a sports cat?
How do you tell a sports cat?
Obviously a big cost consideration when doing the upgrade
Cheers
John

We have the same car and I think you will have to replace the manifold and cat as I believe what they mean by cat back is it is only the exhaust which is the sports part and the freebie.
When did you get the car as we believe that the later part of last year the cars were coming out with the Clubsport tune as standard because of the emissions.

The standard optional sports cat-back system is nothing special power-wise. It also uses a 400 cell cat on standard Ford manifold.
If you go for a 200 cell high-flow cat and headers, you will need a proper remap as you will be pushing the parameters of the ECU and may get engine lights.
A rolling road remap will cost but is the only way to get the most out of your hardware upgrades and keep your engine running properly.
"Flash" remaps are cheap for a reason!

Thanks for responses
Ian-I bought the car in August, I must admit I thought the upgrade was only behind the cat but thought it worthwhile checking.
I wonder if there was a build number the clubsport upgrade started?
Barry-I was inquiring with Techniques who didn't consider there was any drawbacks with installation, however I also value the opinions of Talk Morgan before making fundamental changes.

We picked ours up at the end of November and I know someone that picked there’s up in September/October and they have the clubsport tune.
Hopefully DaveW will be along as he has replaced his exhaust and manifold and had the clubsport tune so may be able to offer some more advice.
