Give Top Gear in Aylesbury a call, they can sort you out a CAT that will be just as good as factory but for much less dosh

Make sure you weigh in the old cat. OEM cats are worth a few bob. I've had two OEM cats break up in the past and decided to go for a Random Technology Super Stainless cat the second time. It cost a lot but has a stainless steel matrix so won't crack like the ceramic matrix does.
