Thanks ZTWsquared!
so regarding the exhaust I could go for the easy way and just remove the second cat right? will that not affect anyhting in any way?

One decision you'll have to make though is regarding the second cat - a decision the Zetec boys don't have to make because that engine has a single cat.
MBRP doesn't make a Focus exhaust specifically for the Duratec ... so your choice is to remove the cat, at which point the MBRP becomes a bolt on affair ... or keep the second cat and modify the exhaust to fit.
I went the second route, so my installation cost was a bit more and took a bit longer - a job I don't think I would attempt to do myself.
Adam (NOS2GO etc) I believe kept the second cat - I can't remember what Daniel did (NEFCANUCK) - but there are a number of us here with Duratec and MBRP.
Good luck.

Acceleration nicely reduces the wait between curves~
