In need of a new cat pipe

[Flat Eric]

As title I'm in need of a new cat pipe as the flange is all cracked where it connects to the cat back.

How much am I going to have to fork out?
It would be cheaper to have a de-cat I know but I'm unsure if it's best option regarding MOT's

Any help much appreciated

Best bet is find one second hand, you will get monumentally shafted buying new from Renault.

iirc they're around 2k?

Will this fit onto a yozza cat back then?

Yea. Or just get a standard cat second hand for cheaper.

It's just sourcing a second hand one that will be a bit of a pain. I want it sorting it's frustrating

Also

When I reach 95-100 mph I get a really high pitched whistling noise. Which puts me off going any quicker. Would this be related to the exhaust or something? I thought it may be the heat Sheild being loose above the back box area?

Strange though

You won't find many people that will weld a cat, lots of nasty carcinogenic fumes released when you weld them!

If it's a phase 1, I have a K Tec sports cat to sell, single lamda sensor. PM me if it's any good.

BTB removed my CAT exit, welded a new piece to it. Better clamp, job done. Granted mine was also enlarged, but it's doable

It's for on a 182 so it's no good for me unfortunately. But cheers anyway

Going to get in touch with Fred in week and take car to him Saturday and see what he can do.

Fingers crossed
