    Nice one David, looks like you can get it done local to you. I've got no excuse as my local is in Leeds

    Cheers,

              what part of the 'stoke' is it situated. i only live a short blast away from the lovely place (20 mins) . is it near the leisure part, brighton hill area, or nearer the town center?

                  yeah on the industrial estate between the golf course/leisure park and the snooker centre.

                  Re the performance cat, not sure, but i just want to get rid of the restictive Y section and the cats hang low on mine plus one is rattling which i think is a sign its breaking up so good a time as any. Ideally I'd have got rid of both cats but the car wont get through the MOT without them....I've checked I'm sure that a race/performance cat would reduce the back pressure and make the emissions test too?

                    Why couldn't they have opened this place a couple of months ago?? Woulda saved me a PITA couple of days

                    That's all good news though, might have to pop in regarding the EGT sensor that didn't get fitted. Hopefully they can sort it out cheap. Let me know when it's done David, and we'll compare Longlife'd 3B's

                      somehow i think your's will leave mine standing, the pipes might be similar but the power sure won't be
