Race cat

[JelT5]

Any suggestions as to where to buy one that won't cost me an arm, leg and shirt off back etc

size = 2.5" 100/200/300cpi

Links please chaps, thanks very much!

Speak to the drizzle gnome (formerly known as storm troll) and see if that place that did his exhaust can knock you one up

You will need to email them about delivery to you though.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-5-High-Flow-...item2c513ce005

yeah damn right.. and then they wanna charge me £150 for a new cat as the one on there will be unsellable. sooo im goin for the electronic box of tricks that will sort out hte lambda sensor problem, which i believe is what I had on my S70R too back in the day...

[Al115]

Sorry, they want £150 off you to put a cat on that works properly on your car? Talk about unimpressive. Sorry to hear it mate.

[Storm-Troll]

I know.. im not as impressed with their service as I once was.. they said its my fault as they gave me the choice of normal cat. or race cat etc etc.. so I chose race cat but would have expected them to fit somethin that would work. im not paying them £150 for another bloody cat to line their pockets so ill go for the £8 electric box a tricks instead.. I wont be using them again thats for sure...

Tossers. The right race cats work fine. None of mine have ever thrown engine management lights. They clearly don't know what they are talking about...

as for the cell numbers are they to suit horsepower??

Agreed. I've 100 cell on my T4, with lambda sensor, and no lights or error codes. All my Subaru's ran fine with them as well. Like most things, when it's done right, there shouldn't be a problem...!

The cell numbers relate to cpsi - Cells Per Square Inch. The lower the number, the less cells per square inch, the less restricted the gas flow, so more power.

Just to add. Cars with 2 lambda sensors, pre and post cat will generally put the emissions light on with 100 cel cat. Older cars like the 850s don't have this problem as they only have a pre cat sensor.

Not even at MOT time.....emissions and such?

[watchmytracer]

so this exhaust thing if i get a cat as above the 100 parts per whatever it wont effect the mot also what else would i need as i am really interested in a new exhaust but know little about them its the one thing i never did on my v70 i went in to local specialist in norwich today they had not done an 850 before and did not seem to clued up (i may be wrong) but they were talking about costs being 5-600
