I know with the *blah blah blah you shouldn't drive a sports car and ride a bicycle*. I'm not against having fun but I read a study that 1 cat-less vehicle produces the same amount of hydrocarbon output as 600 catted vehicles...
I thought about adding in 200 CEL cats in the midpipes to counteract this a bit but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't get hot enough to make any difference in filter, but may kill the smell. 
What to do.. |
I've looked into 200cel downpipes but they are either mega expensive or Chinese cats welded into a stainless downpipe. Seems more appealing to me as I'm weary about wastegate rattle myself. But don't want garbage cats that could melt.
