Don't need one but the mot'er can decide to fail it if he thinks its excessively noisey

Sweet so if I wrap her and also bung her for mot 1 they won't no if have silencer 2 will be pacified by a bung.

I have just fitted a side exit sounds lush but want to lose silencer

[turbo Grant]

As long as its not blowing and secure and not excessively noisey they can't fail it

[Jarrod]

Sounds reasonable I hope I find a mot tester as reasonable lol

Yeah as stated mate, its totally down to the testers discretion. Mines always been fine and i run a Buddyclub Spec 2

No you don't need a cat. As the other guys have said its up to the tester to say yes its fine or ouch my ears are bleeding.

Your car is subject to a emissions test. Every car is. You car will fail a cat test. If the tester follows his guidelines in the testers manual, he should then do a vehicle specific test. With starlet gt's not being a uk car they are not on the data base. So the tester must do the minimum requirement. I.e a non cat test.

This also applies for glanzas.
