Those are the cats. Why would you think your car didn’t have them?

Maybe he punched them out so that they are straight through and through - therefore catless

Really only one way to truly find out, drop the exhaust and take a quick look -

Thanks,Matt

Removing or stripping the cats does not improve the power on a base, or mostly stock, motor. Still, people punch out the cats. You have to look inside to know for sure.
