better off getting a sport cat mate, if you de cat you have to have it back in a garage or round a mates changing the cat back and forth pluss if you get pulled by the old bill on spot checks the XE lumps wont pass without a cat. i got mne from offman cats for £175 S/S 200cpi cat, almost as good as not having a cat at all lol

Anyone got a spare rocker cover? Im thinking of polishing one up or spraying one. Just want to have a mess about with one.
Just need to make up my mind on the cat as it should really be done before its mapped

I still think of getting one sometimes 
But my minds made up now the corsa is staying until atleast this time next year when i can then hopefully insure the car im looking at for a sensible price
Hopefully the wheather will be nice tomorow and i can clean up a bit more of the engine bay.
Still debating wether i should buy some cams or not
And wheels as i love mine but want something slightly bigger to offer a little more grip

dont be a badger, spend some £££ on decent tyres, wheels wont make that much of a difference

Its got decent tyres now as I binned the budget ones it came with it a few months back. Just thought something a little wider would make it grip a little better

some wider wheels would make it grip better, but the traid off is the amount of tram lining you will get, got 195/50/15 on mine when they were 165/65/13 origenaly, and its a git for pulling me all over the road.
