    race cat?

    Just seen this :http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SPORTS-CAT-200...item25580ad70a

    wondered if any one had tried them at all?

    Thanks

    ccr (custom chrome racing) is quite local to me & used them a few times, but i think that cat is a bit more restrictive than need be. Ferrita use a 100cell cat with 3" in & 2.5" out on there downpipes

    my exhaust is from ccr and that has a tuv approved 100 cell race cat no restriction at all and sounds wild too

    I ran 100 cell race cat on Subaru and made a BIG difference. Also seems to offer a more "stable" exhaust environment if doing other tuning (remap).

    And it passed MOT with the first cat removed and only the 100 cell cat in place.

    i think they just fit parts supplied by the main branch in Nuneaton, i don't think they'll have any parts on the shelve. I may have read it wrong

    If that's the case then Joe your cheapest option would be an OBX DP, as they come with no cat, just a V band connnection,

    I sold one a little while ago, because i already had a Ferrita fitted unbeknown to me,
    Depends on if you need a staight flange or angled, but you get them form States, people selling them on VS or look on Ebay,

    HI Joe, what turbo are you running a 18t 0r 19t? you will have to look at your CHRA, to see if it is angled or striaght.

    yes mate not sure on price mate,
