it can do
it depends what the emissions r like
if your engine uis running realy efficiently it might scrape though without a cat but it is a bit dodgy

i bought mine with a new mot(supposedly) then wen i put it on the ramps it had no cat. i claimed off the salesman, because its illegal to pass it without a cat

It should do. Mine is a 96 1.6 sport with a decat and full powerflow stainless system and stainless manifold. I tipped a full bottle of nitrox into the tank the night b4 and put super unleadec in it. When it did emissions they were half the legal limit- 570 ppm hydrocarbons. Go figure but i wasnt argueing!
