Point 1.

The law that governs the catalytic converters for the MOT came into effect in 1993

The MOT regulations say nothing about a vehicle having a catalytic converter. They merely set emission levels which have to be achieved if the vehicle is first used after a specific year. Certainly some cars with every efficient engines could achieve the required emission levels without a catalytic converter. However in your case, if your vehicle’s year is before the break year, then should the cat be removed, in all probabilty it should not affect the MOT.

Point 2

I am still running a standard top mount and i am in the circa 400 bhp area, Can i ask why you want to change it if you are not going for more power?

as for the tmic i will be hopping for some more power after the year. i just think the wrx 1 is a tad to small and think a sti 1 will do a better job at cooling  i might be wrong hear  oh  and i do like the look off them to ...but as i said mate  spot the guy without a clue lol just need some pointers
