Hi betty,
The Nct centres (national car test) do carry out emissions tests in S-Ireland but not sure what the measure for...
if you look a page 13 it gives a brief discription of the smoke test...http://www.ncts.ie/nctmanual.pdf
hope it helps.... Ron

Hi Ron - this was here for a while but everyone kept falling out with the guys in the mot centers because they were reving the shit out of the cars, looked like someone was going to start a fight with the examiners so they decided to scrap it , thank f*ck.

Only one I decatted was a 406 HDi, and it did make the pickup a touch brisker. you really need a remap to extract the best from such a mod.

It's won't affect the MOT in the UK - the only diesel emissions test checks for smoke (farticulates) and the cat makes zilch difference to this, and mine sailed though several years running with nary a raised eyebrow.

I did mine a couple of weeks ago, as the old one was blocking and power was miniscule as a result.

Now, its like a new car!
