   On my mark 2 vtr, I have a custom system and de cat mani.
   Come mot time, rather than taking all the mani off, could I cut a cat sized bit out my centre section, and get a mark one cat and put that in the section I've cut out to get it to pass ?
   I assume this works right ?

   yes you'll be fine. Could just get a standard vt exhaust if you dont want to cut yours up too.

   even better, so a mark one centre section with the underfloor cat would do the trick?
