yes, im sure that theres an mot station willing to risk losing their licence just so they can illegally pass a random car from someone they dont know.

Mapped it made 0.7 of C0 and standard map 0.6

Hydrocarbons are well below.

Looks like I'll be switching back to a standard exhaust....

Just can't understand how all the guys with 200 cell cats pass, they're not exactly cheap and I may as well not have bothered.

I know loads of guys round here running de-cats and basically every tuned jap car is.

Oh and it's the increased rev emissions causing the problem.
