Hi,

Right, i had a 1.2 8v 1994 engine with CAT. The CAT broke, so we removed it and fitted a straight through pipe!! Since then i've had a 1.4 8v SRi engine fitted, still using the same exhaust system!

Its time for MOT now, and i need a CAT to pass! What CATs will fit?? Are they all the same?? I know someone who has one from a 1.0 12v Corsa, will this fit???

Cheers

Matty

I think they are the same mate....

I meant for the 1.2 8v and the 1.4 8v

the 1.0 12v will be different

Well i know someone whos going to weld it in for me anyway, and make some flanges up so i can remove it easily! So does that mean that the 1.0 12v one will be ok?? Is it just different mountings??

Main question is.... Will it pass MOT??
