Awesome buddy, thats all i needed to here....ill get the cat gone, then have a play :)
 
I think my 200 doesnt have a cat, but I was thinking about getting a side exit exhaust, but for that would have to remove my back box.. but also not sure about legalities of this...
 
JP im jus gunna go for it, i want the side exit you see but what i may do is chop the back box off, bent the pipe at the end so its not sharp then leave it exititng jus behind the back wheel like it would attatch to the box, mine has a cat :| annouyed but ill make a pipe to fit instead ill put up some pics when its done see what you think??
 
Right, for MOT you are not allowed to have a straight through exhaust system. It must have silencers fitted ( at least one ). De-cat will not be a problem so long as emmissions are good and below the values for the vehicle.
