If it's not holed or blowing and secure, it should pass. Check out the GSF site for a price.

A question on exhausts, why is the mpg supposed to drop if youve got a hole in your exhaust? Is it somethingg to do with drop in back pressure? I dont know!!?! [:I]

Not sure on how many components there are (pipes) and does a diesel need a Cat??

diesels not tested for cat, tested for particulates ie smoke, you could replace the cat with a straight piece of pipe, should improve performance and possibly fuel consumption
