Default Sport cat

Hi Guys i have an afterburner sports cat and need to get an mot i know it has to be red hot to pass and some testers dont like to mess about warming it up.

Thanks for all your Replys👍

I bought a battered old sports cat for my non turbo. Keeps bringing up eml light for emissions. But used cleaner and passed with no issues. And no code while using it.
