we have the NCT over here (same but less strict) but i cant see how it would fail. maybe on emisions. but that should be about it.

The only way it could fail as if the emissions were high as stated before. Just make sure that you give it a good thrashing and make sure that the engine is warm prior to MOT :D

and to state the odvious. make sure you have the cat on it.

also if you have an after market box. get the baffle in it. might help especialy with the sound.

Don't think they'll care about the sound to be honest.

Like people have said, only the emmisions really. What year is the car?

It's a 2000 model

You'll need the cat in then and it'll be tested on a set figures.

Unsure of how much an ecu will effect emisions, depends how its tuned, but i would say you should be ok. Check with who ever tunes it for you.
