Well for the money i will be getting a new Flexipipe, a new CAT and a new twin backbox and new piping from front to back all in stainless steel for the £487.

Now regrading to your post about my car only firing on 3 Cil...

1: my car is using a good amount of petrol im getting about 22 MPG but its all town driving.
2: the Car kinda spluttering but im putting that down to the fact that because my cat & backbox are blown my car is strullging tp push out the air pressure????

as for loss of power im still getting 109MPH???

I think most 8vs have a slightly juddery idle. mine does. So you think the cat is blocked? have you had it scanned for fault codes?

My mk3 also has a juddery idle but is fine when driving. 487 is a hell of alot of money powerflow or longlife build a stainless system alot cheaper than that
