Basically I have one of the decats with the decat section that drops out with flanges at each end.
I am looking to get a custom section made from my old exhaust cat so I can swap it out for mot.
Anybody done this?
Looking at it I think I would need...
Old cat
2 x 3" flanges
2 x 3" to 2.5" reducers
Guy with tape measure to weld it all together
Thoughts? Advice?

Hurdy did something like that with his Mk5 ED30
Might be worth checking out his project page :smiley:

Anybody?
Surely somebody must have done this?
The amount of people running decats surely not everybody swaps downpipe come mot time if doing legit?

So you missed my reply then?? :huh:

I think most people will probably know a "friendly" MOT tester, or will swap it once a year. As Rhys said, check out Hurdy's thread.

No but you posted up something about a mk5 which is a different car. Looked at the project page of his and mentioned nothing about it.

Same rules apply no matter what car is it :rolleyes:
And I know 100% that he did exactly what you are attempting to do. Maybe drop him a PM........ :whistle:

Which hurdy is it?
Few people called that on here from what I can see?
Thanks!

You looked at his project page :rolleyes: so which Hurdy do you think it is :whistle: :laugh:
-
I presumed it wasnt him after looking there as seen nothing about a decat
-
Its in his list of mods
Looks like the thread about his decat was lost when the forum crashed a few years ago

I've got a decat pipe into a custom cat for my 1.8T . My mate owns a custom exhaust business and done it for me if I ever needed it for MOT. Maybe worth trying a custom exhaust place if you have one near you.
