lockys96 Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 http://img171.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/users/1/2/9/4/byblos1961-img500x313-1137315199sard.cata.jpg just under 300 notes about 290. before shipping, so would think 350 shipped. does the current cat just bolt out, and this would bolt in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ark Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Apparently the police are being encouraged to do more road-side checks for cats on cars like ours...yes you only get a producer first time, but the second time... Oh, and noise levels drop with a cat in place, so getting on track is less troublesome. Plus you can buy into the wierdy-beardy-hippy bull$h1t, claiming cats are vital to preventing climate change, and feel good about yourself.

albundy68 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 bio ethanol's the way forward, carbon neutral so no need for cats, and better performance than petrol! (speaking as someone that makes a living out of 'all that hippy s#it' lol) doesnt solve the noise problem though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Garfy Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Noise is actually becoming a real problem for track day goers. This does my head in, why do people that don't like the noise live in houses that are near tracks, you can guarantee the track was there before they lived in the house. Aaaarrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you don't like it move!!!!!!!!!!!! Obviously this is not a dig at you Gazboy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angarak Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Im currently mulling over whether to get a high flow cat like those shown when I come to decat my TT (ooh, the irony!). Im sure I read on another site that the police can impound your car on the spot if it fails a roadside emission test, admittedly I read this a good while back so the law may have changed or my memory may just be playing up. Surely a high flow (sports) CAT is less restrictive than an old OEM CAT, with the added benefit of only needing 1 to keep tree hugging hippies happy??
