I really didn't see in his post where he asked what anyone's opinion of whether or not he should leave the cats on was.

To answer to op's question, apparently you'll have to buy a gasmask so you don't die from the odiferous discharge of a 'catless' exhaust.

I hear ya; but it is a public forum, and located in a country that allows free speech. Better to have that then a dictatorship.

Just curious if you get a tuner to tune out the 02's and have no cats your check engine light will no longer be on correct?
