3" exhaust
« on: 01 April 2013, 22:02 »
hey there all im on the last part ready for my remap but before puting the 3" ebay exhaust i want to get a sports cat for it
and was wondering if this would be the correct part for it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-76mm-Centre-200-Cell-Universal-Magnaflow-Metallic-Sports-Cat-59959-/110806135426?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item19cc8f7282

tbh there's really no point in having a 3" exhaust if you are going to restrict it with a cat.

As said your getting a 3" system for optimum flow and throwing a cat in it seems pointless.

Do what I do and just fit the standard system for mot purposes   :wink: it's only once a year

if you going down the sports cat route might be worth getting it welded so can swap between cat and original pipe without taking downpipe from turbo off.

sports cats are still a big improvement from the original and I passed 3 MOTs no problem with a 200cel
