Hello All,
Have been looking into getting a decat pipe as my Cat is nackared and makes rattling noises on excleration. I have looked on the net with no luck have seen some on ebay from the states but not from the UK. Any one know of a UK store where I could get one???

Don't know about UK sources but since you mentioned a rattle on accel, have you looked for a loose heat shield around the cat or exhaust piping? They are known to get loose with age and can usually be repaired with a large hose clamp tightened over the loose area or just remove the shield. I usually can find the loose spot by tapping lightly on the exhaust system with knuckles or a small hammer when the engine is cold - you'll hear the rattle and be able to isolate the location.
