bbsal Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 ive been hearing you can gain good horsepower taking out the cadilac converter and just running a strait pipe from it.Is it true?also i dont think it will pass inspection after you do it and also wont it make the car louder?

SKperformance Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 do not remove the catalytic convertor i am pretty sure it is illegal almost everywhere to remove a functioning one even to replace it with a high performance one with lower back pressure you would be better off with a new exahust sytem and new bigger pipping such as a mandral bent 2.5 inch pipe and muffler it will be a bit louder to remove it but the exhaust system can be remde from just the resonator and not give it too much of an increase in noise plus the pipe isalready 2.5 up to the res and then shrinks to 2.25 inch pipe for some reason the header is made by one company fo raround $1000 as it takealot of work to make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
