200 Cel Sports Cat recommendations?
OllieVRS:
Hi,
I want a sports cat for some extra performance and a nicer sound, but 200 cel to remain road legal.
Not looking on keeping the car long term, so longevity isn't really a concern.
Preferably one that ships from EU, but UK is fine too.
Any recommendations? The cheaper I can get away with the better.
Cheers

When i bought my car it had a decat downpipe fitted. I bought a Magnaflow (Can't remember part number sorry) and had it welded in. About £100 for the cat and £75 for welding. It has passed the last 3 mots so must be half decent.
Edit: Like with everthing prices seem to have increased. Cheapest Magnaflow i can see on ebay is around £150.

Is there any chance you could go through your eBay account to find exactly which one you ordered? That would be a great help.
The cheapest 3" Magnaflow I see on eBay is €205, which would end up costing probably €300 with postage and import fees to Ireland.
I also found this, which has €15 more shipping cost than that Magnaflow but costs the same, and it's the full downpipe system too. But it's as generic as it gets:

Hi, Just checked and it was a Magnaflow 59959. Not sure on the one you have found there, hopefully someone else can advise if they are generally good for passing mot for a few years.
