If yours is an underfloor cat, as appose to a manifold cat it will work fine.

It's a 1.1...
It's illegal...
It's a 1.1...
It won't do anything other than make the hamsters under the bonnet a wee bit louder...
It's just a metal pipe...
Did I mention it's illegal and it's a 1.1?
Why waste your money? Just colour code the bumpers or save up for a new car.....or an engine transplant

Is it your car? No
Do we care about a trolls opinion? No
So how about STFU
01 will have a front mounted cat, just get a new manifold (4-2-1 or 4-1) and it will remove the cat
Just remember dont connect the second lamba sensor
Pm me if you need more details

If you want more noise, then yes
Gain wise you probably wont see anything but the throttle response may be improved
Yes you loose back pressure, which is pretty critical but are you going to be worried on a 1.1?

I'm with adam, I hate when people do this, as soon as anyone says how can i do X to my 1.1 people all pipe up saying its all pointless.
He said he knows it won't improve performance, maybe he wants it for sound or whatever, im sure he has his reasons, it's his car not yours so if you don't have anything constructive to add just don't bother posting?
