  agreed the price seems high (even though i'm in the u.s.), however the
cats do tend to be fairly expensive (in any currency). i think the best
bet would be to get a 4-2-1 manifold and down pipe (used at junkyard
isn't too expensive) off a diesel rabbit or a gti, replace the cat with
a good one (doing it now will save from having to break the bolts again
later), and grab the techtonics system. you should be good for a number
of years then.
