Jo,

I'm interested to know too! I wonder whether it would pass an MoT and still give a noticeable improvement in performance,compared to the OE downpipe?
I'm assuming it wouldn't make as much difference as a cat-less downpipe.

Question

Has anyone installed an Graham Goode downpipe with cat on his Scooby? Is it worth all the money (£511.13, including VAT and shipping to Belgium), does it changes something?

Jo

I was informed by the chaps at Graham Goode, that it will pass an MOT with just the sports cat on. As for performance gains, don't know but shouldn't be as good as full decat.

In the end I opted for full decat, £200 all in as opposed to nearly £600 for the GG catted one.

I changed my non functioning catted downpipe with a GG unit, SS with sports cat (part number GGS604) It was fitted at PE and run on the rollers after.
Emissions were fine and it passed the MOT half an hour later. BHP went from 247 to 258, although this was not direct comparison as the previous figures were a few months old.
