Default Re: cat less

Aftermarket tunes that tune out the cats will show not ready on system readiness monitors. You can have one "not ready" and still pass. It's funny, ive heard these cars will pass a sniffer even without cats. Ive never had anyone do a visual on my inspections, I usually sit out and watch. Not to say they arent supposed to look underneath....

True True. If you have an offroad on the 2005 and up it will not pass inspection visually or by the OBD2
Besides the cats dont rob that much power

15rwhp is what vendors are claiming for o/r pipes, even if that's a little on the high side that's cheap horsepower.
