it stinks when you're sitting at a red light, but that's about it.

What about the babies that are in the back of mom or dads car inhaling all the harmful uncatted gases cars are farting out? The law made it illegal for a reason, just like heroin. I'm remembering a South Park quote, "Save the children!". At least run an overpipe/front pipe cat. We have 2 so why not keep at least one.

I live in frigid Minnesota where we have enough trees to suck up all the icky air. If I could speed up this so-called "global warming" I'd do it.

First green house gases from cars.. Are a tiny fraction so it doesn't matter. Second global warming due to man is a scam and it's not warming anymore.
Third the concentrations needed to kill or harm anyone from running cat less are considerably higher than anything you can measure a foot from your exhaust. NOx CO and CO2 into the atmosphere is all a temporary problem so unless you live in Cali or some other closed in valley it won't harm anyone. It does stink although rarely if ever for the driver. Any classic car is the same. Most of all bikes on the road are the same as well.

The only reasons not to run without cats is possible fines, rasp and possibly smell.
Reasons to do it : cost, power if your talking about the headers, weight.

the prius does more harm to the world during the manufacturing process than our car could hope to do with a catless header. and i dont know about the states, but prius drivers all speed like maniacs on the highway here and totally kill their gas mileage.

if your gona spew all that, you had better ride a bicycle to any destination under 20 miles away, or your a lazy hypocrite. and on top of that, it should be a used bicycle because creating a new one takes energy that runs on fossil fuels. but chances are you dont. if you add up all the engineering and manufacturing that goes in to a car, then bring in the insane amount of damage oil rigs and refineries do, just to get a car to move its insane. then the average person uses all that to move the lazy sack of shit that is the modern human a few miles across town.

thats not really an option, once you replace the header and get the aftermarket header rasp, the front pipe is not going to do much for you at all to tame rasp, unless you go back to the stock one, in which case why even bother swapping the header. Been there, done that, purchased a Q300.

How many cats does our car have? And how many can we get away with on a stock tune to not have a CEL? I would get a tune but I don't want my cel on when I go in for warranty work.
