Yh mate original cat is in my garage.
it is the noise making one, but does sound good with the de-cat, just saving up now to get a BMC.

The standard Gti systems iv found quiet grunty anyway, the de-cat has just added a rasp to it, i like it though lol

Just remember Tim, you will need a cat for an MOT, or a garage that is a bit lenient towards that modification.

Its a real pain!!

You have to remove the strip of dashbord covering below (you can find one of the points in the glove box and the other near the steering coloumn), underneath them is two back screws for the holder, and there are two screws at the front corners. hey presto shes out. but be careful, if bits fall apart its a real pain to put back together!!

Loving the smoothed look. Very nice, if you don't mind me asking how much it cost you?
