Word of warning though, they are extremely expensive to keep on the road.  I had to replace a drop down pipe which was made from some special metal, had 2 pre cats before going to a main big cat and was only about 2 foot long....

.....the part on its own cost [size=20]830 quid!!![/size]   :o :o :o :o

Thats not to mention each tyre costs £220 and to top it up £130.
