if you check scorpion as an example - they only list one exhaust from cat back
in fitting kit you get 2 types of adaptor tube.

Luckily derv has a big bore cat so didn't need to use them on mine.

(get a decent panel filter too  :wink: )

i've got non resonated discrete - it has a little burble when started up but after that it's fine.
Car really goes well from about 1700 revs now.

the pictures don't do it justice - the pipe bore is much bigger than std and very simple to fit.
