they don't fit!
despite them being the right design the internal collar of a standard cat it too fat!
luckily I got a standard mid section from Jonny205 Thumbs up
so that's her set for the M.O.T.

    dunno then Dunno
    the collar just seamed too fat to fit,.. I snapped the head off my rubber mallet trying to get it in,..
    that was my favourite tantrum tool as well! Sad
    it's pretty snug with my Devil De-Cat but the collar on that is much thinner

    Are you sure it was not the length of the standard cat pipe going into the scorpion middle box?Wink

    As mine was too long,had to chop circa 20mm length off to get it to mate upYes

    ^^ this, I think you'll font there's a weld inside the scorpion centre box which fouls the sleeve from the cat, as Coskev says cut 20mm off and it'll fit fine! Thumbs up

    I bought it about a month ago,.. Not new mind
    But the fella I bought it from said he'd used it for about 5000 miles and bought it
    In 2009,.. Thinking about it I'm sure long life
    Doctor'd the end to fit the De-Cat

    The inner collar's longer on the de-cat than on the standard cat,
    But a thicker metal so won't slot in!
