Those inspections aren't the height of science or anything, but they can tell if your car has a functioning cat or not.

If I wanted to get the car licensed for the road, then I would put a cat on it. If you are going to track it, then skip the cat.

Ditch the CAT, Im hollowing mine out on Friday. Eventually I will be getting a "TEST Pipe" to replace the CAT completely.

keep the cat, no point in poluting more for a very small gain in power that you will most likely never feel......noone can feel a 3 or 5 horsepower increase, you may be able to feel tenhp increase in a 225 hp car, but it wont be ten most likely will be less from what ive read about other cars, dont add polution especially if you wont feel a gain/incredible small one from it

peace out

just do a high flow cat. it will be the best way. its a huge ass ticket if u get caught driving with no cat. and a high flow will still give you more sound and some more performance while keeping it street legal
