   Depending on the model the manifold comes from. I dont know about a mk1 manifold but for a mk2 manifold it would do the opposite. You would then have two CATs as the VTR manifold is where its CAT is located. Either leave your manifold and get a catback exhaust system, or else get a SS 4-2-1 manifold

   Mk2 vtr mani has a cat, a mk1 vtr mani does not. If its only a 1.1 nothing is going to add significant power gains. Just more noise...
