see here's the bit i don't understand.. when i look under the car i see the backbox and then two silencers the same shape/size, on on the angle and one on the longer straight bit. i think the cat's the long one but what does the other bit do?

It does nothing, remove it, it's unnecessary weight!



Believe me, I have driven like that before, it's something to remember for years.  :grin:
