    Differences between 197 and 200 diffuser

    Hello all, Recently purchased a lovely Albi blue F1 (477) and when buying it, the seller said something about the 200 diffuser (which I didn't take any notice off at the time). Now it's coming up to new exhaust time, I'm concerned about the fitment. Can anyone advise the differences? Cheers
