I went for a 200 cell cat because the 100 only *might* get you through mot. That said, the 200 cell should be less effective than the standard one so if something is wrong with your emissions, you're bound to find out sooner with the 200 cell.
In terms of power, to be honest, you won't really notice a difference. Maybe you'll see the engine revs slightly more freely up the rev range, maybe you'll release 5 bhp more (or more if something is blocked in your current cat) but all in all you'll just 1/ enable exhaust gasses to move more freely out of the exhaust which will 2/ get the engine running a bit cooler which in turn 3/ might enable a custom mapping to take advantage of the setup and squeeze out another 10 or so bhp on top.
But just make sure you get a high quality cat. There's 200 cells that cost 100 quid, there's 200 cells that cost 400 quid. They ARE very different. You get what you pay for.
