its got the original standard cat and a new silencer and back box, the original standard silencer was Fcuked was rattling badly.
Actually in terms of power/torque i didnt really notice any gains or losses with the group A, if anything the car felt smoother through the revs and of course the sweet sound,but also the exaust wasnt on properly when i tested it,their were leaks! my cars a Gsi 1.6 the only engine mods are viper induction kit, high performance leads and plugs.

what about the power steering?
ive got blue lights in the footwells and the roof/map light is blue also,will this fail it? driver side electric window dont work either!
another important thing is the exaust!! ive fitted myself a full cat back group A scorpion exaust, will the emmisions be ok for the MOT???
:thumbs:
Am i right in thinking that it should be ok on emmisions, so long as there is no decat on it, and also a Grp A system will actually loose power unless your engine is highly modified, as there is no back pressure?

For the last 3 yrs mines failed on wheel bearings, low brake pads and a stickey fog light switch.

if u av a de-cat exhaust fitted then it wont pass. If u have changed the lights and theyre not e standard and lhd not rhd then it wont and also if u av changed the alloys and cant get a full front lock then it wont either
