Getting rid of the catalytic converter...will that cause problems?

You mean other than it is AGAINST FEDERAL LAW, no … no problems

Yup, got it…a few others have already pointed this scary scary fact out so far, in case you didn’t notice, but thank you anyway. It’s not as much of an issue in Canada, not a federal law, just a $110 traffic ticket. Just FYI.

In any case, as an update to everyone…I’ve got a new cat on the car now, with new pipes, and a Magnaflow Camaro muffler with dual tail pipes to round it all off. Definitely feel a bit of a performance boost, and it’s got a nice throaty sound to it without being obnoxious. Thanks for everyone’s input.

Wait! Did you throw that old cat away? I don’t know about your car, but the worn-out cats in newer cars are worth about $75 as scrap. Why? They contain rare metals, like palladium, is why.

No, I left it at my buddy’s shop that did the work…they gave me a really good deal on all the parts and labor so they can recycle it. But thanks for the heads up.
