Miltek decat pipe
« on: 27 January 2012, 10:19 »
I'm pretty sure that this is a larger bore than the standard on a 130PD. Is there anywhere would I could buy a reducer to fit it to the rear half of the exhaust?

Thanks  :smiley:

Not sure as to that it matters on a diesel as its not subject to a full CAT test, not 100% sure either though. The vehicles age maybe has something to do with it aswel?

I believe they could fail it if they want to, rules say if it had one from the factory it has to be there to pass the mot, same applies to steering wheel airbags

Ahh right, is there an age range on that ruling or is it all vehicles regardless of age?
