performance exhaust system

[nyron gaf]

Hi all, hope all is well, I found out this afternoon that my 08 connect exhaust has a break in it, at the rear box end ( the pipe that goes into the rear box). Was thinking to get a performance exhaust to replace it with, but not sure where to start, would be very grateful if anybody has any info on where I could purchase this from, or any links for this exhaust, best to regards nyron

if you mean a s/steel jobby with a decat pipe and chrome tailpipe try powerflow or longlife

Hi mate ,, DON'T go for the decat pipe ,,, your van will fail the mot if it hasn't got a cat on it ,,, any vehicle manufactured with a cat on has to have a cat on when you take it for a mot .

no ones had a failure yet...........only going to fail on smoke

Mot rules changed in April this year, has to be physically there, although emission test doesn't need it to pass, so there's no need for the cat to have the right bits inside it

like i said.....no fails yet......not tested on emissions,only on smoke,de-cat pipe could be replaced if needed or just knock the guts out of the original,been talked about enough on here

Just saying, those is the rules now, so if he's thinking of a decat then the rules have changed from last year. I think the mot guys just ignore it at the moment like your saying, but its a defo fail.

i'd be more concerned about all the undeclared modded vans with void insurance
