Hey guys, I am wondering if any1 can help me...I just got my car back from getting a full custom P""**flow decat exhaust. Its a 1.4 Sri Nova, and my car has been fine ever since I took it there - now it just cuts out - no misfiring just suddenly dies - electrics still work - just cant get the car started again for about 10 or so miniutes then It rares back in to life again. The guy from the exhaust place said my fuel pumps packed up so i bought and fitted a new 1 the next day - that worked for about 10 mile then the car cut out again. Again I got it started again and took it the the local garage and they replaced the fuel pump control relay - so yet again a new part was fitted - but guess what - it cut out again on my way to work this morning!!! So thats 2 new parts that werent even the source of the problem! I have run a diagnostic on it and there is no error logs on the ecu. Any body got any ideas?? - plz help! Could it be that the car does not like the decat ??

Any help would be MOST appreciated.

Thanks
Paul.
