Newbie question I know lol!
Just wondering if it would be worth putting a japspeed de-cat on my 2.0 1999 5th gen standard exhaust and how likely it is to pass mot? Cheers

Id say yes and yes. Quite easy to pass an MOT without the cat.

Even if you pass emissions your car will fail if it of an age where it should have one but doesn't.
I think that came into effect a few months back.
