Which should i go for? the De-cat would be cheaper, but the Sports cat is legal, i need to know who can do one for a decent price for a Kia Cee'd Diesel

and if your geting a bigger turbo? a full de-cat back larger bore? may be the best thing to do and just get a section of the pipe made up so that you can easily replace the cat come mot time. i posted something up here a while back on custom sports cats , think it was jamex or something who sell them and an exhaust place near you could just put it on your system. no idea though, as ive never even messed about with the exhaust on mine never mind a kia.

The engine on my kia seems pretty much bullet proof, anyone whos been in the car will tell you it gets a very hard time, yet never misses a beat, ive a panel filter fitted, and at the minute im just looking for a better sound from it, but ive been told that when it revs over 2500 revs it sounds similar to a v6 diesel,,,,don't notice the sound myself lol
