Infact, even having the improved driveability and smoother power delivery chat with Mr Milltek, i will still find it hard to shell out that sort of money unless my exhaust falls off.

I have the full Milltek set up...worth the money? No.
But, it is a nice piece of kit and gives the car a nice note...adds throttle response and top end pull...so a very worthwhile mod? Yes....just a bit expensive in my view.

Intereting you say the milltek cat is all but see thru, the new one i saw wasnt. I was amazed anything would pass thru it.
it "looked" restrictive, so the standard one must be even worse!

Hmm..I can see through mine...you can't see through like an open pipe but you can see objects through the cat material...this is with 100 cell cats.
I also have a VR6 Corrado Milltek cat sat here...you can see through that too!
Compared to the standard effort which lets no light through at all...it's amazing it works at all...but it does!
Personally, I think de-catting adds next to nothing in power...perhaps a few BHP but you can get that with the Milltek cats...sure it's cheaper, but over a few years of changing back for the MOT, is it worth it?..A few 'swap it in, MOT it, then swap it out' carry on's will soon have the cost adding up - assuming you have to use a garage to do it.
..and if you get caught? Serves you right... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
