Nah it wouldn't fit and if you tried to make it fit you would blow your car up and you will catch a nasty virus, But it would fit my car lol.

I have had my eye on that too, It will fit a treat on your car and theres even a reducer to fit straight onto your old cat.

May the best man win!

also helps if you've got g40 manifold and bypass pipe :) needs to be longer to fit a saloon properly and the angles might make it bang on the floor

I was gunna get an extra bit of pipe between the middle section and the backbox. Didn't know about the floor banging bit though :-(

Why's that?

All downpipe diameters are the same from a 1 litre to a g40, being 1 3/4" respectively. It's the middle and back boxes that are smaller diameter pipe.
