    Rear brake caliper piston wind back..... Help

    Managed to get it sorted about 10mins after my post, got a big 19 mm ratchet spanner on the end of the wind back tool to create a bigger handle and more leverage to really get some force into it.

    The Definitive What Exhaust Do You Have Thread...

    Has anyone with a non resonated de-cated scorpion gone through an MOT with it fitted? I know with the new reqs if a cat is removed that is meant to be there then the car should fail. I'm interest to know if this set up fails on emissions or that the pre cat still manages to bring the emissions...
