I know somebody who ran straight pipes for their exhaust and
cut a cat in half and welded it to the outside of the pipe. You would never know it wasn't hooked up it looked so good. That is of course unless you have emissions test to pass. :cry:
I dont fully weld my test pipes, gets some moisture out of the damn pipes so they dont rust to death. You probably have one of my test pipes friends and I used to sell them of on ebay I have fully welded a few for people, and installed one in my car, you feel no difference except that it is a tad quiter not louder.

You mean hooked up to the end of the pipe? Why would you do that? Why would you even cut it in half at all to install it anywhere on the system, cutting it in halfwould make it useless anyway, like you said you wouldnt pass sniffer test so why bother doing that work.
I have wanted to heheh run straight pipes out the side of the galant like an old drag race firebirds...lol a galant would look cool withe tip of exhaust pipes just making it out the side, people would have to watch steping into the rear seats while its idling when their wearing fancy clothing

im not planning on taking my CATS out because i see no point to.. but i have a question....are there any advantages to install the CAT from RPW?? i know its a performance CAT so what does it actually do aside from the stock CATS??
Lets the air flow through easier. There is no advantage or disadvantage to removing your cat, ignoring pollution crap. Dont gut your cat and keep the empty shell there thats bad for your exhuast stream you lose your flow like that.
