Re: Exhaust question
When I removed the cat, my truck made kr at lower psi, so just be careful and have someone you trust either watch the laptop or drive so you can.
I've been looking for a chip to have reprogrammed, if you are interested in getting rid of that KB chip, let me know.

Re: Exhaust question
I will have my gf drive and I'll watch dm and see what it does, if there's a problem I'll just put a high flow cat on it and see if it gets better. I was going to send the kb chip to get hood to return until I can get all the stuff I need to start tunning it.

Re: Exhaust question
What is the point of a cat this is that open and free-flowing (Quinnster pic above)? Wouldn't it flow about the same as a gutted cat, or a piece of pipe? Do you just need it for emissions, or does it actually produce an appropriate amount of backpressure to help keep boost under control?

Re: Exhaust question
Its not a Cat, its just a 3" straight through pipe with some metal welded around it to look like a cat. In California and maybe other places if you get caught without a cat its a federal offense which is some serious stuff! That is just insurance if someone were to check.
This is where I picked it up from:

And I have heard of people whose cars are running clean enough passing emissions without a cat, so at least mine will pass visual and maybe even the actual smog!

I see now, the inner piping sort looks like a Converter's Honeycomb.
