If theres no feedback to the ecu then i can't see why taking out the cat

I'd replace it with a straight pipe. Exhaust noise will be louder, which
depends on your POV good or bad you decide.
More power, depends if you are tuning the engine and what other limiting
factors there are. In other words if the exhaust is a limiting factor then
yes you'll see some benefit, if

It might affect the turbo backpressure slightly but it shouldn't do anything
bad.

I've found some 3/8 BSP plumbing fittings difficult to come by - though you
may find a plumbers merchants that has 1/2 to 3/8 reducers. Beware that
plumbing threads are available in both parallel and taper thread!
Best of luck, Martin

Hi Tony,
If you look on the RS website they do all fittings in hydraulic type
applications, and some very useful 1/4bsp ones, not sure if they would be
any good, or a local hydraulic type place, they would make up pipes for you
too?
They also do reducers, etc

I've looked on Microcat and sure enough, on the earlier engines the oil
pump is on the front of the engine behind the crank pulley and timing
chain, much the same as it is on the CVH.
But on the later engines it's like yours, on the side of the block.
There only seems to be one version of the la

There are 2 variations of the Mk2 Fiesta engine mounting bracket and gearbox

The XR2 version mounts the engine about 10mm lower than the other version.
You can tell if you've got the lower cradle as it has 2 chunks of 10mm bar
