   Right since i have a hole on the downpipe i though it was about time i got a new bloody system, but i dont have a clue.
   
   I got quoted from checkpoint aberdeen 385 for a full system with cat bypass <<< what about my mot in 2 months time would it pass with the bypass????
   
   i was really wanting from the manifold > backbox for that price but then manifolds cost alot alone just as much as the system is costing, is there any place i would get them cheap as say farmfoods chips lol??
   
   i was hoping to spent 400 at the absolute most for the entire system, yeah its not alot of money but can only afford that @ the moment.
   
   
   Cheers

   you can make that cash stretch quite well
   iirc the supersprint system is 170odd quid
   thats 220 for a mani which is easily doable
   
   and decat cars tend to fail mots on emissions

   right so i should probably keep the cat that would save me from fcuking about @ mot time.
   
   from http://www.supersprint.com/USPI0C5S7T25TR001.asp i noticed they have none for a vtr, i have the vtr 98bhp engine btw

   think i paid 450 - 500 for hole system mate but think you could pic up a cheaper cat back just ended up with piper as i wanted magnex and didnt have any so gave me one that was simular.
