Ebay do the version where it replaces the cat if it is under the car and therefore you need to put it back on for the MOT. On here KAMRACING sell both, so you do not need to replace the cat if you do not want to.

www.perofmancecentre.co.uk are also pretty cheap
Generaly (as I was told) a twin box system creates more back pressure so increases lower down gains, where as a single box system creates less back pressure there by produces more higher end gains.
So a twin box system with a 4-2-1 (better for low to mid range) will give alot better low down gains and a single box sysytem with a 4-1 (better for mid to high range) will give better high end gains.
Wheather this is correct Im not sure but thats how it was explained to me

I will let you know the weekend. Ive just ordered mine from kam racing.
There is a guy who sells them on ebay. I was speaking to him before. But used kam racing before and always seems to be good delivery and service so bought it from there.

If you like
There are two centre sections available from supersprint. There is the road version which is made from thicker metal but my fav is the lightweight race centre section.
Sounds the nuts

What is the end that joins to the back box like on these? Im thinking of getting one as I have a 421 manifold and powerflow straight through. I like the back box but the centre section is shite and cant be doing me any good performance wise.Will it fit? Also do they fit VTR's? IS the bore size different from standard?will this make a difference?
