Cheers mate very informative, but the piece I was looking at looks nothing like on the article! Its just a section about 20mm wider than the rest of the pipe; could just be a join or something. In which case, I have no cat! :spoton: Is this ok?? I thought it was illegal??

Oh ok, but yeah I dont even think I have a cat to speak of. So would this decreased restriction be making my car run better or worse? because the exhaust creates back pressure which makes the engine run better right?

Yeah it wouldnt surprise me mate. Ill definitely be having it fixed, hopefully sooner rather than later. I was just kinda hoping that this might be the cause of some idle issues Ive been having. Time will tell I guess!

if you bought the citric sedan of steve on the forums here you definatly have a cat on that exhaust. that bit that is larger is the cat, they sometimes look like that.

check the link out, does yours look something similar to the cat 5th from the top? iirc that manta system has a 3" cat, so the pipe will be slightly bigger than the rest of the exhaust.

Nah mate mines a red one! on my exhaust, where I suspect the cat would be isnt a nice neat bulge as on that one. its more like theyve just welded a section of slightly larger pipe into it, if that makes sense?
