Thinking of going ahead with this but knowing F all about the ins and outs of it (a part from it makes the car louder), I thought I may pose a couple of questions to th experts (th ats you lot).

The original cats are more expensive / worth more than the replacement bit of pipes right. So I would presumably get these back from the modifier and be able to sell them on and perhaps?

MOTing will not be a problem but would I / should I be keeping the cats with a view to the future? (whatever that may hold).

Has anyone had a de-cat and paid for the job by giving the modifier their original cats as payment?

Realise this is totally from left field but I've done too much dosh buying the car already and can't justify any more expenditure to the wife. So desperate for more noise though.

Thanks all. Ordered from Str8six today.
The engine noise / note is one of two things I've found just a bit disappointing with the Tuscan, the low down grunt being the other.

Even more tinny??? Maybe need to rethink.
I guess the question should be: how do I make it sound like a V8?..... Burble, burble
