Hello everyone, so some very kind people or person badly jacked up my LCR and decided to saw off my CAT on Thursday so It looks like I'm forced to down the decat route early. My problem is they have cut the flanges off the downpipe from the turbo so I'm looking for anyone selling a downpipe and decat pipe together, preferably a cobra 2.5" piece to match the system currently on my car. Any help would be appreciated as its really put a spanner in the works this close to Christmas. Many thanks in advance

This is definitely what I'm look for. Does this fit the LCR though as its not mentioned in the description? But this is what I'm after mate. Doesnt look like it will bolt on to my Cobra though as it has a sleeved end also

It says it fits the TT mk1 8n, ive got a couple of bits off that and it fits the same, i would like someone to give second opinion as im not an LCR expert.

I recently sold a very similar one (badged differently)
That TT one should fit a LCR although you'll obviously need to adapt the centre section to suit that step down on the new decat pipe.

I see what you mean...I'd rather not have to "modify" anything a straight bolt on option is ideally what I've got in mind. The Cobra one I saw was almost £400 is that too expensive??

You should be able to source a full used system for less than that mate.

Great..I've managed to "bodge" weld a couple of pipes in place for now so I can use the car. I just can't believe the front of some people. Never expected to be victim of CAT crime

In all fairness ive never heard of one been robbed from a LCR before but prices have really gone up the past year or two and know of people getting around £300 for them at the right metal merchants.

Normally it's merc sprinters that get their cats robbed. Is your workshop quite hidden or off main roads etc.. any cctv if not your own other company's might do
The workshop is near a road yeah, but its right next to loads houses aswell so plenty of eyes about. I suppose people don't really bat an eye to it tho
