2010 Toyota Hilux 2.7vvti (CAT converter removal)

Post by Slangvel »

Hi All

I have found some posts on the 4.0l V6 but not on 2.7vvti.
Can anyone tell me if they have done a de-cat on the 2.7vvti.
I have done some searching and I know the 2.7vvti has 2 x Cats, U55 & T30.

I am planning to take mine out this weekend, now that it is out of its warranty.
Is there anything FUNNY I need to know before taking this on?
This will be a DIY plan, probably with a dropper and hammer to break them out as I want to keep the boxes as is.

Here is a few pics I have.

Shouldn't be a problem. I can't fault your method as it is the same what an exhaust shop would do.

A 4x4 is merely a machine that enables you to get stuck further away from civilization.

Hi Manne

Sommer vroeg vanmore uitgehaal, my so 1uur en 'n half gevat met goeie hulp van 'n vriend.
Bakkie se klank is bietjie harder, reen katte en honed in Kempton so kan nie so lekker toets nie.

Will keep you up to date on the good results

Ek wil nou nie bol praat nie maar ek kry 1.5km/l minder in die dorp, hy is nou 5.0km/l waar hy 6.5km/l was.
Ek het 1 pre sensor voor die eerste cat maar geen by die laaste een, weet nie of die extra lug hom nou laat extra fuel gee nie.
Hoe kry n ou die mix weer reg, ek het al gehoor die 4.0l V6 manne praat van mini cats.
Gaan dit dalk help om die ECU te confuse?
