Why not get a blueflame down pipe, leave the standard cat back on the car, and then with your £500 you have saved by not getting the blueflame cat back, you could get your self a twintercooler.

Best of both worlds.  Key thing being you dont need a full TBE for power, its only the downpipe for power. the cat back is for noise

I found the downpipe made the exhaust note sound deeper but not too much louder.  Was perfect for me.  Ruined it when i fitted the piper cat back as it was uber loud

yeah dont want uber loud noises  currently have remap , Autotech HPFP , Custom intake to be fitted soon just unsure of what next think a mix of blueflame dp and twintercooler would be best

sounds good to me.  the intercooler is deffo more imporrtant than the cat back.  I think the cat back is more like the icing on the cake really. its garnish you can do after you've gone stage 2+
