Luke155 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2021 Have a n1 and a k&n filter, didn’t have any issues with service and mot at Toyota. Just made sure they knew about the filter. They even called to double check with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greenmx5man 1 Report post Posted May 28, 2021 I have the Tuning Developments NA package and invidia N1 fitted. My local dealership in Peterborough wont pass an mot as they know that the primary cat is missing. They also complain that it is noisy when it goes in for service. So after service I have to take it to another testing station to get an mot. I am just down the road from Fensport but Toyota fixed price servicing is quite cheap for a 2013 gt86, so use them currently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Main dealers tend to be quite strict on that one while an independent may not know what the stock headers should look like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MartinT 514 Report post Posted May 30, 2021 You're better off taking it to a tuner with a friendly MOT station. I have no problems with single cat and emissions.Sent from my LM-G710 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
