Tbh, there are lots of folk on here that have no complaints with the ebay systems. This won't be MOT friendly though bud, you'll have to put your standard system back on come MOT time, unless you have a friendly mot tester

Really depends if you're after sound or power mate really. If you want power gains but want to keep it MOT friendly, full system with sports cat is really the only way to go (someone please correct me if I'm wrong!). If its just the sound you want, your options are pretty much limitless, there are tonnes of different cat back systems, or just get a different backbox

Ref. the spoiler question......I'm pretty sure it's a different fitment. Again, someone please correct me if I'm wrong!!
