About £100 inc gaskets and 2 - 2.5hrs because a lamda hole needed to be threaded a little better.
That sounds really good, I'm going to start with the dp and cat then get the rest of the system later aswell.
Can i ask what made you choose pipewerx over bluflame?

It sounds better in reality, especially when it's hot. I didn't have a choice really, I bought them second hand but barely used from what I can tell. TBH though, I probably would have gone with which ever one was cheaper if I was buying new, from what I understand, they're completely the same 
. I totally recommend doing this mod, it instantly makes a difference to your car where as a cat-back really adds nothing. I like the fact that, for the time being, I have an OEM tailpipe which is one thing that I'd like to keep, it's the perfect size. I think for the cat-back, i'll be going custom.
For anyone not sure what they're dealing with when it comes to the OEM parts, here's a picture. It's pretty obvious why they're so restrictive.
Also for anyone worried about MPG, the car returned 34.5MPG last night with mixed driving.

A 200cell Cat will be fine for the MOT. I have no EML light on, unlike a decat. The gain in performance is greater than the gain in sound, the car feels more responsive, quicker on acceleration and less hesitant (not that it was before, but there's a difference). Turbo spool is approx 200rpm lower and sounds louder, the car just feels alot better to drive and less like it's being forced to hold back.
ok nice, i also want to keep my tail pipe standard.
so this would be a nice upgrade downpipe and cat..
thnx for the info

The best I have for the moment, I wasn't really reving it that hard but you get the idea. You'll have to wait until Sunday to hear it in the flesh ...maybe you can get a tunnel vid for me

PipeWerx and I paid circa £300 from a member on here. I believe retail is £550 from PipeWerx.
More cleaning. I'd like to thank my mum for her endless support with my OCD & the abuse of her home, water and food, my Step-Dad for the use of the hose pipe and most importantly myself for the heroic efforts I put towards the cause that is...keeping the LCR clean.
