Anybody know a place in the uk that sells these as I want to have a remap soon and I think this would make a big difference. I have seen them for sale on American eBay but don't want to take a chance.
 
I'm a bit dubious about ordering things from abroad, do you have to pay duty when it arrives in customs? Do you get the engine warning light on with this pipe? Thanks for the reply.

I've bought a lot from the states and you usually pay import tax via a bill form the courier, but these say you pay no tax as it's direct purchase and a uk seller... I maybe wrong. Also try Jbs auto design they may have something. You will get the engine warning light due to the lambda getting an incorrect reading. But with you saying your getting it mapped, the tuner will map the lambda out so the light will be out.
 
Has the MOT guidelines not been changed now so that cat removal fails the MOT? Or is that diesel only?
 
Think they've changed now so if the cat's seen to be missing on a diesel it fails aswell :aggressive: want the cat off mine so bad.
 
Yeah it's an mot failure, but 3 yeas later and 3 crates of fosters later and here we are. I do still have the cat though....
 
I wasn't having a pop Craig. I've just always wondered what the legal position was. Life is much more of a grey area though. :)
