hmm just saw wont pass MOT with this, so any that will?

Keep the cat and stick it back on for the mot.

Just buy a sports cat. Its still high flow, but passes mot. Mine passed the mot on the border line, but still passes

Failing that. With all of the extra power the De-Cat gives you (sarcasm) the police wont be able to catch you when they see you have no mot.

where sells them? link?

aha, not give you much boost then? talking a couple of brake? or not even that

[Mikester]

At the end of the day. VW are not retards. They made the exhaust system to be able to cope with the engine.

Upgrading the exhaust flow is good, yes, but unless you mod the engine, its not actually adding much more power than like 1-2bhp really. What you will get is a headache though.

okay matey, cheers

De-catting will give a good increase in power, as they are very restrictive.

[tobybrennan]

stupid question i know, but do all decat pipes fail MOT?

[gtigolfthree]

Pretty much the emmissions are higher without it.
