QUOTE(soulfly @ Feb 14 2006, 03:01 PM) 6. Catalytic converter...to remove or not? It depends. Cat converters are the biggest restriction to the exhaust gas flow. Removing it will definitely release some more power, but it is bad for environment. If your engine is badly tuned or always running rich, I suggest that just leave them on. Cat converters do not contribute anything to exhaust noise.
soulfly, does that mean if my fueling will be a lot more richer if i remove the cat? i thought it's gonna be tad leaner due to more airflow meh?

QUOTE(sledgehammer @ Feb 24 2007, 10:33 AM) since stock setting is always running richer than usual so if the manufacturer runs it a li'l leaner, that means you're screwed. they don't necessarily run rich - by all means, do a checkup on your spark plugs to ensure that theory before saying so. it's the cheapest method available. and a/f ratio doesn't give good fuel mileage without proper driving technique - if that's what you're after.
