cat delete
Just as the title states, I want to delete all catalytic converters. Will this throw any codes? Performance gains vs. sound? Don't really care about performance unless mpg increases.
The reason: I dented my exhaust pipe before the first cats and I can straight pipe a lot easier than replacing and re-welding everything. |

well penis, I can't use the search feature when I am on my phone. it automatically goes to the google search. and I really don't think deleting the cats is a bright idea. I'm sure in AR it is a general hillbilly practice to do this, but I'm just cheap.

If you knew how to use the search feature, you would know you can click on advanced search and search from your phone.

redneck is a coalminer term, and is far from derogatory stemming from it's original meaning. as far as my phone is concerned, anything I push it immediately goes to google search. as far as hillbilly, I used that as a stereotypical term referring to more your mentality rather than geographic location. next!

You specifically said AR in your insults. Don't kid yourself... You attempted to use my geographic location to insult me. What phone do you own?

I have a samsung gs3. I'm on the sprint network. Yes, I did use your geographic location to insult you. However, the term "hillbilly" was meant to demean (spelling, sorry) the mentality or intellegence of you due to your geographic location.
And I guess it looks like I'm a hillbilly also since I can't figure out a simple search function on my phone. Lol Now, back to the topic: thank you everyone that gave me straight jt |

You should understand what cats are and where they're located before you go sawing things off.

I understand exactly what the cats do and also how they accomplish it. What I don't understand is what all the sensors do. Well, why all the sensors. I understand the theory of them, most anyway.
