the cats originally fitted as part of a full miltek system, when it was first installed it was using the stock headers so they will locate. they dont have flanges but any good welder can add a flange on

Stock non-VXR headers or 04 VXR like the OP has?

stainless but if you are getting headers I'd go with 007s set up. The miltek cats are quite big so if you go with long tubes then you would be better off with slim line cats. Thats why I have these cats spare, if you sticking with stock vxr stubbie headers there should be no such problem

150 + delivery for the pair or if you are near enough to Swindon you could collect and get them installed at Bells
