I have kept mine. Was only offered £20 from the scrap man, so told him where to go.
Worst case, if/when the car is sold, it can be refitted and the decat sold on again  My D3 Build Thread

Any of you guys received and fitted them yet?
Just wondered if your noticing any improvement?
Quite tempted, think I will try a local garage to see what they'd charge to fit it. I do t fancy messing with those studs in case they shear off Just 'cos your paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you!

Yes, there is an improvement. Mostly in respect to pickup - turbo spoolup time is improved. What I also note is that looking at the MAP live value on the IID tool, that when reving when stationary, the increase in pressure is fairly low - it used to be quite a bit more - though in normal use is still where it is to be expected - upto about 250kPa absolute.
