Cobra exhasts
Morning,
Anybody had any experience with Cobra sports exhausts?
In spite of having a sports cat in it mine just failed an emissions test. frown
Their website claims it will pass a uk emissions test, hence the purchase, but I'm having a bit of difficulty with them as I don't have the original invoice.
I just wondered if anybody else had had any similar problems.

You can always try this http://www.scoobypedia.co.uk/index.p...tMotFailureFix I've not tried it my self so don't know if it work's but maybe someone else can comment, it doesn't say but if you were to do it I would imagine that the car needs to be well warmed up first before attempting.

Interesting idea but it doesn't entirely make sense to me...
"The fuel is being evaporated and burt in stages throughout. It hits the CAT membrane and this causes a catalyst which makes the fuel burn so rapidly and hot it removes all traces of CO."

A LOT of the advice on SIDC/scoobypedia seems to be a bit odd to say the least at time's but you never know, I would like to know what the most knowledgeable of members think though.

Went out this morning to "heat up the cat" and then took it straight for a test. Made no difference whatsoever! :-(
Think I need to get the map looked at.

Yeah I think its a 25yr guarantee with invoice! I sent them a copy of the credit card statement...still waiting for them to dignify it with a response!!!
The exhaust did well on the trackday last week though, a measly 96db!!
