CL10 CYA project

Finished and she is now ready for MOT tomorrow
It is using a bit of coolant so that's a bit of a worry
Slight leak around the thermostat housing gasket and the new gasket arrives tomorrow so it will have to wait

My other fear is the water seals in the turbo are passing and I do get a bit of vapour at the end of the exhaust
So just have to see how tomorrow goes

Was that on idle? Because it might just need a bit of time for the revs to come down and it will settle to under 0.30 especially if he revved it higher than 3k when doing emissions.

Got a few options

Buy and weld in a miltek sports cat 200 cel - was built with one of these originally

Remove the center section and knock up a temporary center section with the old secondary CAT from my old Clio and another sports CAT

400 cel CAT from eBay and have it removable with the current CAT for MOTs use v bands so a simple swap in and out

Bit disheartened today after that fail
But emissions are out of my control and need a machine to tell me

But the tester was very complimentary of the car and it's come a long way since the day I collected it

Went for an Italian tune on the way to the station it's an absolute hooligan of a car haha

I would just put the secondary "main" cat back in temporarily and it should pass no problem,sports cats always seem to give problems on emissions.
