Post by: stainesy on 13 May 2011, 18:15

im looking at buying an exhaust the exhaust is off a 16v and mine is 8v. i no that from cat back 16v will fit 8v but this is a powerflow exhaust with cat that is part of exhaust. will the cat fit the 8v?

Yes I am 99% sure it will fit including the cat as from memory the downpipes are the same.
