Seriously though I'm very surprised I always assumed high flow cats would raise the emissions?

Looking at that ad I would need one with the flange fittings though cos every other part of my exhaust is bolt on flanges?

what dobyou mean? Is there anything wrong with this cat? It's back on shelf now as I needed it only for MOT

My local exhaust shop weld them for £20 so it's not an issue

My cat that is on just now is let's say dicintegrating! To fit my cat back system I need to undo three bolts attached to the rustiest standard cat I've ever seen lol so basically it's gona get damaged. Since I will be needing a new one and because my only aim in life just now is to get this car more powerful and back to health I'm interested in a high flow catalytic converter. Pref. stainless with flange ends which will save me on weld costs and be easy to take back off if unsuitable for mot test. I've seen a couple on eBay for around 60 bucks but they don't state if they are 100,200,300 cell etc???

Well I had a high-flow 200CPI unit fitted to mine from a place near Bristol (Nemesis Exhausts) for £150 fully fitted. A few of the guys seem to have sourced good units on eBay as per previous links, so might be worth trying that.

I plan to fit my decat again soon anyway, been running the car about 5 years without it and REALLY miss the scream when in VTEC.

yeah ive got a decat here and well tempted to use it but if I get one off ebay its looking like a weld job and so I will never get to fit it hence my struggle for a flange end high flow. loli will continue searching ...
