I take it the old owner never gave you the standard cat then?

I dunno how much a new cat is? I'm sure someone will know? I know you can get a Janspeed sports cat for the GTi delivered for £299.

around 100 or a bit more for a normal cat.

no point to put in sport cat unless you got cam or throttle body done.

no i asked if the old owner still had the cat but he threw it away and its most likely gonna have a standard cat fitted back to it.
And thanks just gives me a rough idea of how much it is for it.

100 quid aint too bad. a bargain for some rhodium, palladium and platinum Wink

I've heard the sports cats are very good, which is why I've ordered one. Each to their own though.
