    Emmisions an ebay cats

    My s60 2.0t failed mot on emssions was supposed to be 0.30 or under an was 0.47 an 0.56
    Ive been told by one garage it could be cat an other that thats not iver by enough to be no material in the cat

    On to next thing
    Under my car it looks like some one has possibly cut an re welded 3 sides of a sqaure to possibly remove the cat material but doesnt look like a recent weld an havnt checked at all yet to see if is hollow

    If turns out it is my cat i bassicly need a replacement but new from volvo is about
    £750 with vat
    Ebay was £200/£250 i think
    Second hand on ebay for original cat is £130

    But i have a seen a cat on there for £85 which can come in 2 2.5 or 3 inch inlet a. Outlet diametre
    An you have welded in an its a 200cell sports cat

    Was just wonderig if any was has bought one an is it going to sort out my emmisions enough to pass from possibly having no cat?

    200 cell should pass aslong as your car is healthy. your other option is to buy a 3" sports down pipe. pm me i can supply for a very resonable price

    Teddy,
    find some pics of Graemes work on here. It looks top quality stuff and alot cheaper than the 'branded' stuff. Shows what a mark up they put on their items I spose. And with that guarantee, I reckon you can't go wrong.
    When my zorst expires, (which looks like fairly soon!) I will be buying from him!
