I’m thinking of getting a high flow cat, is there any other work needed besides just swapping 1 cat for the other?
Thanks!

I need a new cat also, so i am thinking about getting a high flow CAT as well, because why not?

Anyone know where i can get a bolt-on one?
Or any one know anywhere near Bristol that can "fit" one for me?

hello

it's been a while and i have started to get my '6 back on the road, after renewing the breaks and servicing she was driving well and then a horrible sound like a bag of spanners!

my CAT has failed

i have a powerflow stainless cat back system, and am asking opinions / advice on how best replcae it. (from my limited understanding i can):

get a cheap CAT from eurocarparts and swap it every year or so.

try to find an original one (and pay big money?!?)

try a quality aftermarket - do they exist?

or a sports cat. - will they pass MOT emissions?

cheers in advance for any assistance

I'd try to get an original one if you can, even second hand ones are good. Mine failed a couple of years ago on emissions and I managed to pick up a genuine second hand one. Gave it to the garage and it passed. Expect to pay £100-150 depending on who's selling it. Aftermarket ones seem to generally be gash.

My Cat was fine on emissions but fell apart. Bought a pattern part and it passed it's first MOT but failed the next. Got a genuine used one from Pug_306 on here and still going strong 3 years later. Think I paid around £70 for it but the price may have increased due to them becoming rarer

Problem is K107 is £160 a cat atm. So will be hard to find one forsale.
