depending on the condition of the engine the emmissions can still be passed without the cat.

its a 1.4i and the emissions limit was 3.50% mine was 0.54% with no cat lol

a good thrash before the test may have helped tho lol

mines just a well serviced engine and used daily
before i took it for test i gave it a good trashing up to 100-110 mph (on private land of course lol) which i think gave it a good clear out lol

If you car needs a cat then it will not pass a mot without it.

i think they only gace me the advisory becouse it took it for test on 14 inch steels coz i needed a tyre on the softstars lol

Some Wynn's petrol treatment in the tank, mines failed on a temperature sensor as well - The emissions were just over the limit and with the above done it dropped to virtually 0 emissions...even with the Magnex backbox fitted

If you car needs a cat then it will not pass a mot without it.

Not if the emissions are below the required level.

Congrats on the mot mate. It feels like a long wait during it doesnt it.

My 1st project Nova failed on 2 brake flexis and emissions.

My 2nd (recent) project went through without a fault. However I did get it tuend and lights adjusted beforehand!
