Estate Exhausts - LewisG - 24-10-2014

My exhaust is leaking, its been on previous mot certificates, Ive just left it and left it, I dont want to just stick on another standard exhaust, what have you guys done? I dont want to remove the cat as Im sure the law now says if a cat was fitted originally then it needs to have one? So I was thinking

Option 1 ____Cat______straight through______using a mid box at the end__

Or would that be too noisy?

Option 2 ___Cat____midbox____midbox__

Okay so.... its probably going to pass emissions regardless of whether it actually has a cat or not. Depending on the MOT tester they may want to see the cat on there. The key there is that its a visual inspection... So either get a decat and friendly MOT tester or get a cat... cut it open and remove all the insides!

After the cat/decat youre on the right track. Straight through and mid box conversion on the rear would be my preference!

Mines a Hoffman decat, a new bosal mid section, and the old mid section at the back, the hanging bracket off the old backbox was a cradle that I pryed off the corroded box and now the mid section rests in that secured with a massive jubilee.
Oh and a 'friendly tester'

I have a hoffman de cat I fitted it last night Smile I've left my back box off until i move the mid box into the back of it Smile what have you decided on doing? I reckon no mid box would sound very tractory and loud i'm happy with mine so far Smile

Straight pipe from the turbo back. Wheyyyyy.

Aha in all seriousness though sam has the right idea. Either a gutted cat or a friendly tester. Mines a straight pipe from turbo to mid box then to back box. Mega free flowing long life system Smile
