If mine rots through I'm going stainless, but its the cat & downpipe that are probably causing most of the restrictions.

Thumbs up

Ferrita catback fitted following the offer of a 25% discount at the T5D5 track day/MRG meet in July this year.

Before:



After:




With the 25% discount offering at the time plus £15 delivery the total was £343, which in my circumstances made it bit of a no brainer decision. More than a standard unit but being stainless it should last for the rest of the vehicle life whilst I own it (and I've no plans to change it unless I win the lottery). Plus it has an unwritten guarantee for replacement or repair at Don's option as long as I keep the car.

Plus it looks nicer than the chopped off piece of scaffold pole that the standard one looks like

Went on OK and no nasty codes thrown up or warnings on the dash. Can't really say it's added anything bar a bit more blub, blub to the exhaust note at low revs. The old one already had a hanger repair to the centre section and the rear hanger on the final silencer was on it's way as well (well rusted and crumbling). The centre section also had quite a bit of pitting and corrosion to the pipe.

It's been on for about 6 weeks now. Sooting up nicely and getting a bit more rumbly with time (in a nice way, sounds OK from inside)

Vids before and after:
