as stated they are there for a reason,just get some hi-flow cats as removing them is detrimental to your car and the environment-lol

didn't think you could get hsv holden in new York-lol

Anything is possible with enough imagination.

Hello,

I have a really simple question. I own a 2008 Ve Hsv LS2 and it has only 64,000 km on it. I just my installed XForce 3 inch Cat-Back System.

Doubt it, but anyway we'll humour you.

I would like to remove my catalytic converters. I know it's illegal to do that,

this should have been when you threw the idea out the window.

but the question is

Would my engine breathe better than before when I remove the catalytic converters? Would the fuel economy be better or worst?

My car has two catalytic converters.

Thanks.

The system and car are designed to run cats - how much drone car one car have - 3 inch with no cats?

Buy some extractors ffs, you have a pov spec 3 inch cat-back and you want to make it sound worse?

Do a full system - it will make a difference, don't just rip bits off.

That's a dog act - removing cats.
