Vito 108 cdi 2002 exhaust

[poppypiesdad]

Hi all
newbie so if i've posted in the wrong section mods please move

My exhaust has split just before the second cat and ive been quoted daft proces for a new front half

MB Commercial £750 front half £195 back half
Local Inde (Bosal exhaust ) £405 Front £95 Back

Are these prices good????

Have loocked at the bosal site and found a exhaust listed but it has only one cat on it will this be enough or do i need both cats????

Would i be cheaper to get a custom stainless exhaust built with a lifetime owners warranty on it like a powerflow one???????

all help will be most appreciated

popps

You don't NEED any cats on a diesel, but they do clean up the emissions a bit so are a good thing really.

They are simple 2 way oxydisation cats, not more complicated 3 way cats found on petrol engines.

Try Leisureshack for supply of Bosal.

Just rememember Bosa;l products are no where near as good as the gen item

I wouldn't agree here. I've not had any issue with Bosal products and they are one of the premium aftermarket suppliers.
The only other one I would use would be Walker.

Both Bosal and Walker (Tenneco) manufacture for OEM as well as aftermarket.

Why do you need the twin cat version? You don't have to have a cat at all.

Remember to tell your insurers if what you fit is different to what the van has on it now ...
