Just to clarify, is this a cat, or a silencer?
As per the pic, bought this 2-piece decat downpipe...and was under the impression that the secondary pipe was going to be a silenced section... but it looks very much like a cat to me....with o2 sensor as well.
Is it, I could be wrong? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v9...psxokrwyrl.jpg |

It is the cat, take a look inside if it is still in there. You should see the ceramic honeycomb
|
As above look inside and see if the cat has been gutted (insides poked out etc )
|
Look inside the heat shield as it might be a straight through pipe as I believe the Prodrive ones were but had oem heat shields fitted, which made it look like a cat.
If it's not a straight through pipe then 100% cat not resonated section. Lets us know what you find. |

Also, even if it was decatted (it probably is, i'd wager), the o2 sensor has to go somewhere, as it can't just be left flapping around under the car :) |

The prodrive decat pipe with heatshield looks something like this. You can see that it is only a pipe
