Just ordered this.

I still have a stock Turboback. When getting my car MOT do they check for Cats? The AWE Downpipe has a high flow cat. Would that pass?

Yes it propably would pass an mot no problem at all with a high flow cat but the MOT is not the be all and end all to whats law on the road. As i keep saying on the mk5 forum theres a slight issue with VOSA if your stopped for a random check and they want to get picky as it does not have a catalyst converter that was type approved with the car anymore this is a little know about law that was brought in for models after a certain time 2001 iirc (I could be way out on the date) even alot of dealers don't know about it or parts companies.

You like the colour (Tornado Red) or the wheels or the overall combination?
I like the colour, like the wheels but don't like the red rims.

I miss Kev too. He is such a spicy, spunky chick with a petit bottom (his words). :grin:
