the 'holey' bit is normally just the heatshield,its whats underneath that counts.;)

some cats dont use them,its just whatever the manufacture went with,wouldnt worry about it TBH.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

your getting mixed up with silencers and the cat lol

the silencers are just plain looking boxes,the cat in my experience has never been further back than the middle of the car!

As said! The heat shield for the cat is the holey thing this would be at the base of the downpipe as I'm guessing you've got a mk1 saxo, then halfway along the car would be the centre section, and of course at the rear the backbox.:y:
