I didn't see your comment about options
Where in l'ton, not devil developments?

What size exhaust are you looking at 3 or 2.5'? What other mods are you 'planning' as a 2.5 becomes a restriction above a certain level.

Most important cat to bin in my opinion is the precat in the up-pipe this kills spool and can disintegrate and screw the turbo. It also just so happens I'll have a Harvey up-pipe for sale in the next week or so, this was spec'd for an APs SR40 turbo on a 2.0 so not sure how suited it is for your turbo, but will be far better than stock, maybe Alyn can help with spec on this? Also available will be a set of Harvey ported headers as I'm going tubular.

If you want an MOT friendly system the normal idea is to get a sportscat downpipe, decat cat pipe and a straight through (or resonated) centre with a sports back box. Litchfield have moved the sports cat to the centre section of their exhausts, I believe to give better spool characteristics and protect from anti-lag systems to some extent.

You'll see pretty good gains from a simple decat pipe, centre and back box combo and can add the downpipe at a later date or hang on for a prodrive downpipe second hand.
