after looking around for a decent free flowing cat for come sva time ive found these.
HERE
unlike the last one that someone found they will ship to the UK, shipping however is fairly expensive for just one but if a few people want to order
at once itll be considerably cheaper.
any one want one?
UPDATE: cost has come back for an order of 10 at £35 plus postage and packing in the UK so ~£40
(please note this is without tax so may have to add vat)

I'm Interested but not sure what size I need yet for my Zetec.
Yip, interested too
Hi All,
It says they are made from 409.
409 is a cheapo stainless. 11% chrome, no nickel.
Roughly speaking 304 is 18/8, 316 is 19/12/3
409 doesn't like being welded. If you do then a 309 rod must be used, 25/20, or the weld will crack.
309 is also the rod for mild steel to stainless by the way.
Sorry about all the numbers. Confusing isn't it.
hth
907
i had noticed but after searching around it seams all of the cats like these are made from 409 but at £29 is hardly a rip off. anyway im assuming most people will put them on for sva then take them off afterwards so paying £100+ for a better one isnt really the locost way.
I might be interested, it depends what the overall length is.
Martin.
yup im interested
I could be interested depending on price as I'll need one at some point. I'm not sure what sort I want yet though or even how to decide.

for end tube size most people will want the 2" or the 2.5" so that it can be fitted in between the manifold and the silencer. if your engine
is going to be 150bhp+ i would opt for the 2.5" if possible.
Costs so far:
for 1 it cost just over £29 with around £21 shipping. ive ask for a quote for 10 to get a rough idea as to how much we could the cost down to.
I'm interested, see what the price comes back at!
if we can get 10 orders the price becomes $44.50 with $152.50 shipping to the Uk for the lot so they will cost ~£35 plus a couple of quid extra for postage and packing costs to send them out over here.

Even with duty and vat, it's still sounds like a bargain.
I'm in. I just need to check diameters tomorrow.
Martin.
If this buy happens, I'll have both ends at 2.5".
Thanks,
Martin.
im in @ 2.5 each end
count me in as well, i'll take 2!
one 2" both ends
other 3" both ends
I'll take a 2" both ends too plz
sorry for the delay, so far weve got 6 then anyone else want one? atm the cost will be £40 (if we can get 4 more) to your door without import duties if these are imposed then they will be passed on at cost once ive got the ammount (it really shouldnt be more than a fiver)
I'm interested at the quoted price of £40 all in (require 2.25" inlet and outlet).
Dave
i'm in for 2 of them!
(V4 setup)
sow i will need them i guess..
next question is what would be the problem of building them in the silencer??

Tks

I bought a couple from him a while back. Paid $146.86 for the pair, delivered. (about £38)
He's also happy to invoice at sub $20
Don't expect a really sparkling product like the one pictured. There's a lot of polish/flash gone into that.
There are also pretty significant "chuck" marks where the CAT is held whilst the ends are formed. But for the money I think they are
fine.
Not fitted one yet, but will be soon to my Focus as I've just removed its CAT when the 4-1 went on.
that invoice trick is for the addon VAT charge by the duane?? (BORDER POLICE)
???
