Cat delete

[Lakersfan24]

If I take the cat off my car and install a straight pipe or a high flow cat will give me any performance or will it just make my car loud. I dont want my car lound so this is why I ask any help or suggestions Thanks

Dont waste your time. You wont notice any more preformance just noise. Our cats flow good enough for a stock engine.

he might pic up i little. but it will be more raspy for sure

Our cats flow good enough to serve WAY beyond stock. There's really no reason to replace it unless it's clogged up. Even a test pipe isn't going to give you more than 1 whp. Save the money and spend it on something more useful.

dont do it. That is a recipe for a headache trust me. Between the noise and the smell it's almost unbarable! I did it and regret it everytime i start my cb up.

My friend runs a test pipe at the track ONLY. His car normally sounds great. With the test pipe, it sounds like shit... and smells just as bad. If you ever want to run a test pipe, do it for track use only. Run the cat on the street.

Plus, we all have to breathe this air. There are plenty of idiots out there polluting our environment. We don't need to add to their ranks.

I just installed a catback and replaced my cat with a resonator and I cannot tell any difference other than the smell. And the rasp sucks.

I'm actually rather annoyed that I did it.

If you want a "high flow" cat that actually works, pick one up from www.sms-products.com

Otherwise, the stock cat works fine. Mikey, you could very well be losing power to that resonator over your cat.

I still have all my stock exhaust sitting in the garage, however I'll need an adapter to go from 2 1/4 on my car to 2 1/2 on my catback.

Right now I have a 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 resonator. I have noticed minimal gains with the exhaust except in super high revs like 5000+ rpm at high speeds.

The smell will kill you if you delete it, when i had my header-to-downpipe leak, i was getting alot of headaches and had to always have my windows rolled down, granted this is not a leak that will roll into the cocpit, it smells terrible, along with the loud rassssssp...

i had that problem for a while, the smell gave me terrible headaches and chest pains, it all went a away when i stopped driving the cb, that problem is fixed now.
