VAP makes good stuff and they stand by their products.. Their tunes are very popular over on the F Type forum.

Thank you. The cats are damaged so I am debating on going to get just stock ones or performance ones.

I, highly, recommend that you contact VAP regarding the installing of their performance CATs as most are installed with a tune and without a tune they may throw some codes.

Even with the tune, I've had a several year long debacle with their 200 cell sport cats. I'm now replacing the heat shield due to an exhaust leak that burned through the shielding due to a flange on the front not being what it needed to be. No one ever contacted me until a forum member wrote me and said he was able to send his back and get the flange added. After that it was largely okay, but still throwing a code on one of them now, even with tune.

It's definitely not plug and play, at least in my experience.
