    I am advising all my customers to not have it done, in fact emphasising that if they get a running problem afterwards I will only be able to help by reversing it. The cars are fine, leave it alone.

    Not far at all on the hatchback models as you leave it open so all the nasty crap that comes out of the tailpipe goes into the cabin where the human occupants use their built in filter system (AKA lungs) to remove said “crap” to filter and purify the air, booted models do require the removal of the back seat to allow for “through flow” ventilation. This process is aided by the addition of a brace of young lungs which although lacking in actual capacity, are more efficient at collecting NOX and indeed PM emissions plus being young, they are more….expendable…
