got a bfo full system for the corsa b aswell as a sportex de-cat,was just wondering if anyone had tips about fitting it???ive noticed in pictures there looks like the sleeve on the middle box is welded in it..does this mean it replaces the wee tube that joins the two together,any help or pics would be great

I had this exact setup, I had issues with the sleeve fit of both parts.
Basically, the BFO fits over the standard system, and the Sportex decat does too, so they're an identical diameter.
I got round this by using a short (4-5") section of the original exhaust to clamp both the sleeve fit sections to.
It's not ideal, the best way would be to get a flange welded to the end of the exhaust, and the end of the decat, so there's no restriction inside.
You could also have a flange welded to the original cat, so come MOT time you can just bolt it back in.
Hope this helps.
