Just wondering if this would cause problems with the emissions for the nct?

So would that mean without the cat the car will likely fail?

That's exactly why I'm asking. Thinking of fitting the same to my car. Did the stage one kit make much of a difference?

The one I know has a LCB and Maniflow exhaust with a HIF44 with a BDL needle and standard air filter. Standard engine and dizzy.

To be honest I have no idea! Never had a mini before and this wasn't running when I got it, as part of restoring it I put the stage 1 in. So I've nothing to compare to.
