Hello,

My MY93 (big turbo) Escos doesn't pass the Dutch MOT (witch is called APK) because the CO% is (way) to high. I've got a Magnex exhaust system from the turbo to the back so the Catalysator has been lost. Can someone tell me where the original cat was placed? I think it was in the downpipe but i'm not sure, i also would like to see a picture of one.

Have other people had this problem and how did you solve it?

Regards,



Mark

the pre cat is in the down pipe just after the turbo,then there were 2 more in the front pipe more or less side by side

Okay, thanks. Will a 3" racecat in the downpipe be sufficient?

when i had my ggr system i had a 3" sports cat fitted to the middle section and it used to pass the mot ok,depends what mods youve got to the engine and what cell cat you get

The engine is just stage one tuned so i quess a 3" 100 cell cat will do the job. Thanks!

the co/emisions can be sorted by the mot guy if he wants it to pass he can get it to pass!!!!!!
cat or no cat ---------ive an n plate and cats gone ages ago and passes everytime !!!!

They MAY not go back to DVLA, but they DO go to VOSA, who have the contract to admiinster the MOT's.
CCTV whilst MOT's are being done is next, so less cheating!!
