Will be interested to see how it turns out! Keep us posted!

Just want to throw my 10 cents out there.
I ordered and DP and CAT from a company in america, it was all over the LCR forums for a while absolutely dirt cheap.

People raved about them.

The exhaust fabricator said that the Steel was average at best and that the CAT didn't look right.

Sure enough the cat worked for about 2 weeks before it gave up the ghost and I just hat it decatted.

I wont order parts from ebay again I'll just have it custom made, However I hope that yours doesn't suffer the same fate.

(Sorry to be a negative nancy)

I wouldn't say you're being a negative Nancy, you're just stating that if something seems to good to be true, 99% of the time it is!

I'm running the Ebay 3" DP with 100cel cat

Before we fitted it, AKS Alex cut it up and rewelded a new bigger flexi part in it as the original one was poor.

The MOT tester then "failed" the MOT because the cat was poor and gave poor readings, We seem to think the CAT has **** itself already so im just going to bash it out as a De-Cat

I have the 100cell miltek and it passed ;) friendly mot guys are good to know lol.

When i say mine failed.... The MOT tester was very friendly :p

if you took the Milltek 100 to a non-friendly tester would it pass is the real question.. because the Ebay 100 wont

If you get pulled over by VOSA, They will get there inspection mirror thing and look under the car.... they will see a CAT

Ive seen VOSA sat at JCT16 of M6 (Crewe) pulling wagons for checks and then also pulling modified cars, somebody i used to talk to got pulled over in his MK3 Ibiza, they used the mirror to check for a CAT and he didn't have one

Almost collected a BMW on the M56 earlier - seems mirrors and indicators are an optional extra on the new 5 series...

Been an optional extra on all models of BMW since the dawn of time I believe, Audi have adopted the same stance in the last few years too.

It's my last day of driving this beast tomorrow :(
For anyone who wants a fast, comfortable, good handling hatch then I would seriously suggest you consider one of these!
