Mot passed with no advisories!! Was a little worried dropping her off this morning as it was the first mot since fitting one of Clive’s Y pieces so first emissions test without the main cat. A close call ..... first fast idle test failed by just one thousandth of a % co2, the second passed by 35 hundredths.

So it’s you doable if you still have the pre cats in ( removing both pre cats and main cat would be an automatic fail ) and avoids the need to switch in/out the original catted y piece once a year. By all accounts you can run the engine hard to build up heat in the precats making them a little more efficient but in my case this wasn’t necessary.

Good day..... now going to empty that half tank of fuel by going the long way round to the supermarket!
