Bought a 'Prodrive exhaust system including Prodrive Sports Cat' from Ebay the other day.... It arrived and Im 90% sure thats its just a Prodrive back box with a standard STI cat.

Does anyone know the difference and can confirm this so I can either send it back to the ripping bastard or stick it on the car and leave him some decent feedback.

here is a couple of pics of what was sent, Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers

How much did you pay cos if standard sti cat then why not just weigh it in you can get between £70 and £80 for them and just keep the back box saves all the hassle of sending it back and you recover some pounds

100% thats not a prodrive high flow cat, prodrive one is stainless steel and has no heatsheilds, just a heat blanket round the cat section
