Is going all catless on a na fa20 motor such a good idea?

Mass production, friend. So, with that in mind, why would someone like myself in Minnesota with no emissions laws to worry about be forced into sticking with those emission controls?

FYI to everyone in the U.S. who thinks just because your state doesn't have emissions testing, it's legal to remove your cats, you're wrong. Catalytic converters are regulated by federal law. Even installing high flow cats when your factory cats are still functioning is illegal. Just because you haven't been caught, doesn't mean you aren't breaking the law.

This is becoming an off topic discussion about subjects people know very little about and are strongly opinionated.


One cat for smell and sound is a good idea, and it makes it harder to asphyxiate yourself.

This reminds me of 50-60 years ago when many states ignored the federal laws because the people had the illusion they were special and those laws didn't apply to them.
Seems like those attitudes are still alive and well, unfortunately.

just like some states having marijuana dispensaries and ignoring the fed.

Cats are for pussies which is why I have none

you only care about the environment if you ride a bicycle made of bamboo, that you made yourself, and don't fart.
