   I have a saxo 2000 w reg which needs a front pipe and cat, just wondering if any other cars will have the same exhaust?

   Most saxos, but it depends upon your engine mate! If you have 2 lambda sensors i.e. with cat in the exhaust manifold, then your bet is only MK2 VTR cat with downpipe. I know this as I have MK2 engine in my MK1 and couldn't get any other cat with downpipe apart from MK2 VTR due to rubbing against the sump. However, if your cat is located under the car, then you should be able to get away with different set ups from 1.1, Westcoast, Eastcoasts etc. Try local scrap yards or breakers, I'm sure you'll be able to find a good system at a low price.

   i found best bet is mk2 vtr cat and downpipe because of the oil filter getting in the way of the downpipe
