Sports Cat replaces your cat & is less restrictive, thus allowing better gas flow & more power.

A Cat By-pass is just that, a section of pipework that replaces your Cat. Obviously would be an instant MOT failure on a pre-1993, due to a CAT having to be part of the exhaust.

Best to go for a sports cat, that way you don't have to worry about putting the cat back on for the MOT! :wink:
