    So it has come to MOT time and considering my car is de-cat, i know it will fail on emissions. So i am having to buy another manifold with the cat in, but will it because i moved the oil filter so i could fit my raceland 4-2-1, will the oil filter be in the way?

    why don't you go for a pre 2000 setup with the cat under the car?

    Is that possible to do on a Mk2 VTR?

    If the mani-cat will go striaght on then even better.

    yea, just buy a cat and place it on your exhaust under the car. means then that you dont have to get a new manifold

    and after MOT you can replace the cat with a deact pipe and then you'll have your old setup back

    another vote for fitting the cat under the car. Takes 15mins to swap over then
