Emissions and MOT

Just had mine done.
Noting previous threads on this I was prepared to argue the point on the Cerbera being a special case, but when the make and model was keyed into their computer it picked up and increased the allowable lambda value automatically from 1.03 to 1.2.
Mine gave 1.02 though (standard exhaust and new cats) which is within a 'normal car' tolerance anyway.

How much were your cats and where did you get them?

MB,
I got them from ACT at around £220 each from memeory. They're freeflow 200dpi ones.
Good quality and good sound.

Lambda limit of 1.2

That's what I call generous!

Sry for sounding like an idiot but i dont understand this Lambda limit thingy, when i used to mess about with cars (pre CAT) they were only looking at Co and Hydrocarbons, then when CATS came in they were still looking at Co but the limit was dropped and the same for hydrocarbons, so, what are they actually looking at now and what part of it is the cerby struggling with as some seem to pass no problem like this one and others seem to have major probs getting through!
