They dont have a cat do they?

So is it just a straight through pipe with baffle boxes?

Mine needs replaced, full thing from downpipe. Just looking at prices now.

The actual pipe & box section is fine its the hangers that have rotted through.

I welded one just the other day. Easy enough. The front and centre hangers always break. If your near south east ill do it free.

Go to a parts store and get a CAT. I know its not the same thing but I got a new CAT at a parts shop next to mine for £20 when I traded old one in that was for my corsa.
