Re: CAT life

The reason i asked was i took my car to a rolling road gathering last Saturday and it should have 175+ ps and it only showed 119PS and he said it could be the cat but I think I would have noticed 1/3 lack of power plus the car will pick up and go at 70mph in 5th, it's a 160 VVC .

CAT life

How long should a catalitic converter last as mine is 13yr old and i have been told to replace it
If it does need replacing any suggestions as what to get one. I am thinking of a 200cell sports one but where to buy
Have looked on ebay but they are universal or ford etc
Thanks
