Russ 6334 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Hi all i read many reviews about de catting a mondeo being a good way to increase power and save fuel etc, many reviews saying it transforms the car completely etc so I thought I’d make my own review i have a TDCI 130 which had 56k miles in November so I bought it for m’way mileage as work 80 mile round trip a day it’s now covered about 72k and only returns about 46-49 mpg driving at 57-60mph on cruise daily i got a brand new de cat and fitted it, was a little tricky but in all honesty an easy job with an air gun initial first drive I was gonna smacked at the response pulling away in first! It flew away but sadly after about 500rpm same old mondeo it pulls away like a petrol now but saying it’s transformed the car I would say no it doesn’t mid range you don’t have to drop down a gear on hills as much but again nothing spectacular, mpg well fuel computer always reads about 53mpg but tank to tank always comes out around 45-49mpg now computer reads 53-57 a noticable increase in mpg however at the pump returned 48mpg last tank with cat was 49mpg if your thinking of de catting your mondeo and expect to get back in a Ferrari engined super car think again, mpg won’t change and power wise you really won’t notice any major difference other than smoother to pull away in 1st cost me £38 for de cat so not end of the world but thought I’d add my experience to the plethora of reviews that claim so much more.... russ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Make sure you keep the old cat to refit, the de-cat should fail MOT under the new regs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
