craig mac Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Jodie 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? CraiG Link to comment
