Greetings,

First post!

I just bought a whole new exhaust setup for my car and basically I'll be getting rid of the Catalytic Converters . Now as a backup plan, I asked my mechanic if he'd cover my *** in case if something goes wrong (like I can't install it or w/e) and he nodded to everything until I told him that the car wouldn't have Catalytic Converters.

Now I respect / understand any mechanics judgment when it comes to doing illegal modifications b/c they can get into a lot of trouble. If they take off the stock cat's and install something that's deemed "Illegal" ~ it could result in federal/state fines if caught using on the street. I live in NJ and there are TONS of cars here without them and they don't seem to get any crap for it. The guy I goto made it sound like I'm going to be a prison inmates bitch if I get caught with them (according to him he was caught using them on his Camaro) said it wasn't worth it and that high flow cat's would be a better/safer option. AFAIK they don't even do anything in the colder temperatures, so what the hell..

What is your input on the matter? Should I scrap using an O/R pipe all together or what?

 

put it on.

 

If it was me I would toss it on aswell.

 

how often do cops crawl down on there knees and get dirty just to check your exhaust pipes? just change it and get rid of those power robbing things.... ive got a Mac- offroad prochamber.

 

I work with a lotta cops and your average beat cop aint gunna give a ****
